About your msh file, the quadrilaterals have the last two element connectivities swapped,
instead A B D C, must set A B C D
On the other side, about your Tecplot file, the header is wrong and must be this one:
VARIABLES= "x", "y", "z"
ZONE T="test", I=19, J=37, K=1, F=POINT
(I, J, K are the number of points in each direction of the grid, in your case,
as there are only quadrilaterals, K=1, and 19*37 = your 703 points)
note that switching the I and J values would give you the wrong grid)
The line Variables=(...) is important because it tells that the point coordinates are
defined in the 3D space, otherwise, as K=1, it only takes X and Y.
I attach your mesh and dat file corrected.

Hello,
I wrote my point as you indicated in your earlier email and i have also imported it as techplot, but the result is strange it is not as it should looks like, see surface.dat file. also i have attached a msh file that represent the same point in the .dat file but connected with each other as quadetrals.
can you please let me know what is the proper format to represent my data to looks like the msh file.
