hello prodogoss.

actually i was struggling with the same thing just the other day.
I had some problems with the indexing, couldn't figure out how to fix
it. (my axes order was screwed up )

anyway take a look at following example.

In[18]:= t3 = Table[{i^2, 4 i^2 + i^3, i^3}, {i, 10}]

Out[18]= {{1, 5, 1}, {4, 24, 8}, {9, 63, 27}, {16, 128, 64}, {25, 225,
125}, {36, 360, 216}, {49, 539, 343}, {64, 768, 512}, {81, 1053, 729},
{100, 1400, 1000}}

here's the contour plot. 

In[23]:= ListContourPlot[t3]

and here's the 3d graph

In[19] := ListPlot3D[t3, PlotLabel -> t3, AxesLabel -> {x, y, z}]

this gives some funky errors on the top of the plot with numbers
showing instead of the actual label... but it does what it supposed to
do which is to plot a 3 dimensional graph.  let me know if you figure
out how to get rid of that.

also finally if you want, 

In[25]:= ListDensityPlot[t3]

hope that helps.
