Try the BarChart3D function of the Graphics`Graphics3D` package. (I
think this is Mathematica 3.0 only.) The function is documented in the
Help Browser under  Add-Ons/StandardPackages/Graphics/Graphics3D (or
via the Master Index).

I never worked with it, but am very interested in real-life applications
of this, thus please inform me, if you successfully used it.

Hope that helps
