Random Seed Error - "Problem in sample .random.seed. Use traceback() to see the call stack,"

If trying to import a space-delimited flat ASCII yields the error "Problem in sample .random.seed. Use traceback() to see the call stack," then the .Random.seed object is corrupt.

When you use functions that make use of random number generators, then a .random.seed object is created by Axum.

You can amend the problem by removing the .Random.seed object. To do so, go to an S-PLUS command prompt and type: rm(.Random.seed).
