how do you expect this code to work?? I did not recommend you to do
that!

you should specify the name of your estimator function with
"setEstimator<-".

this means,

setEstimator(SpecDef) <- "PropEstimates"

in your example.

Please use the code I already posted with the
*dev-version* of fPortfolio available at *R-forge*.
