You may already have done so, but, just in case, there are several easy
things you could do to be certain that the list of points, say "data",
is in the right format and holds numeric values only.
You must have a list of quadruples, so
Dimensions[data]
must return something of the form {"number of lines", 4} (see below).
Also, you could use *MatrixQ* to check that all entries are of the same
format, say machine-size numbers.
Finally, you could test just a small portion of the dataset and post it
on the list if the result is still the same (i.e. no output).
In[1]:= data = RandomReal[1, {1000, 4}];
Dimensions[data]
MatrixQ[data, MachineNumberQ]
data[[1 ;; 3, All]]
Out[2]= {1000, 4}
Out[3]= True
Out[4]= {{0.341631, 0.957932, 0.871985, 0.325795}, {0.875817,
0.267281, 0.557361, 0.55858}, {0.209774, 0.85224, 0.330304,
0.583726}}
