Hi, Mathematica experts,

    I have a data list {{x1, y1, z1, w1}, ..., {xn, yn, zn, wn,}},
where {x, y, z} specifies location in 3D. I can use ListPlot3D[{{x1,
y1, z1}, ..., {xn, yn, zn}}] to generate the 3D shape of the object.
But I would like to color the object according to the values of
{w1, ..., wn}. Is there a simple way of doing that? I thought of using
the ColorFunction but haven't figured out how to do it.

Thanks in advance.

CL
