grab the converter at: http://www.kaydara.com/products/fbx_converter/index.php

http://www.kaydara.com/products/fbx/index.php?filename=compat shows compatability issues...

The one for lw didn't work for me from there so I used the one at:

how about just importing the lwo file into max..wouldn't that be the best solution?

..well??

go get the FREE max plugin here

www.maxplugins.de

if your using max 4 or 5 you need to go to the max 4 version [as max 5 is really a tweeked max 4] of the site and look at the import/export plugins for max...get the lwo importer

done!
