all you need to do is take off all off all your smooth modifiers or and then export the mesh. .obj works great for me, just make sure you do check the 'quads' or your mesh will get triangulated.
just import it into 7 after that. -

The FBX format comes to the rescue at times like this. Just export parts (Or whole, depending on what's there) of the scene in the FBX format. You may need to export to an earlier version of FBX (Can't remember what versions Max 7 would accept) so a little trial and error is probably the simplest solution on that front.
tell us what happens.
