It's not automatic, the best thing to do would be to post your source code and we can help you with that, also look at the sample file in the sparky's dir for more info. Theres more to it than just adding objects and then expecting everything to work. What you have to do is position a sphere at the camera's location, then check every cycle to see if the sphere collides with anything, then if the sphere collides, stop the camera from moving any farther in that direction.

As Dodga says, using a sphere for your cameras position.

I generally use:

collide=SC_ShereCastGroup()

the radius of the sphere is the size of the area needed.

You will also need the start x,y,z position and the ending x,y,z position, no need to move your camera until you're done.

A little bonus of the SphereCast is that you can retrieve the sliding values to which you can move you're camera position to.

Warning! May contain Nuts!
