Importing 3D pointset in VR using Win SDK

Dear all,
the question seems easy but I cannot find any guide nor help to show me how to write a piece of code with Visual Studio to import or create a 3D pointset in VR using its X, Y, Z coordinates.
Any help greatly appreciated :)
Thanks
Best regards
Jerome

I might not be the one to give you the answer, but I think you have to tell us what you are going to use to render the points?
Are you going to use a ready made 3d engine?  Write something basic from scratch using OpenGL? How big/dense is the point set?

EDIT:  I'm sure others have better suggestions but it looks like you could use VTK,
