See _The Mathematica Book_ (Third Edition), Sections 2.9.5 and 2.9.13.
These sections contain information about using the Ticks function to
control the properties of tick marks used on axes in two- and
three-dimensional plots.
If you are using the Mathematica 3.0 notebook front end, you can retrieve
the relevant sections by pasting the following expressions into separate
cells in a notebook and evaluating them.
FrontEndExecute[FrontEnd`HelpBrowserLookup["MainBook", {"2.9.5", "5.8"}]]
FrontEndExecute[Frontend`HelpBrowserLookup["MainBook", {"2.9.13", "13.16"}]]
If I have somehow misunderstood your question, please let me know.
