you might want to try out this script:
http://www.scriptspot.com/download.asp?ID=2411

DetachElements 0.1 (http://www.scriptspot.com/download.asp?ID=2411)3ds max 7, 6 9/1/2004 Downloads: 498 Seperates all the elements of a selected object into seperate objects themselves. Will work on editable polys, editable splines and editable meshes. Renames the newly created objects based on the originals name. Detaching function for splines is different from that of meshes and polys (does not center pivot/reset object)
