Peter,
I'm not sure what the problem is - could you give an example please?
Information about ScatterPlot3D can be found by typing ScatterPlot3D,
highlighting it, and using Help>Find Selected Function, similarly for
Plot3D.
Here is the example given for ScatterPlot3D
First, load the package containing the code:
<<Graphics`Graphics3D`
lpts = Table[{ t Cos[t], t Sin[t], t},
{t, 0, 4Pi, Pi/20}];
ScatterPlot3D[lpts];

Is their a problem with getting the points into Mathematica? Could you
explain please?
