This file was exported from autodesk pro desktop 8.0 in this way:
File --> export --> browse --> choosing the file --> save --> ok.
if you can help, pleaseeeee...
Ok, now I tried a diffrent file type: *.IGS
I exported it from pro desktop 8.0 in the same way and imported it in 3ds max.
A simple object like a square was imported perfectly to 3dsmax 8, but when I tried importing a complicated structure like a base of a robot (which was built from several other designs which were connected to one design) it didn't import nothing.
please, help.
Thanks a head, animation team, 1578.

you could try to export as an autoCAD file (or something else) and then from AutoCAD export as a 3ds file. Tell me if it works out.
