Hi Mr. Yuri, for converting a curve to a polyline you could export the curve to a DXF file which has an option to break curves into polylines and then read that back in again.

Or a slightly different method if you want to make a polyline for the control points of the curve rather than points sampled on the curve, that should be possible by extracting the control points as point objects which you do by turning on control points, select one, then Ctrl+A to select all then copy and paste them. Then with the point objects use SavePointFile from here: http://kyticka.webzdarma.cz/3d/moi/#SavePointFile (use the one that says its updated for OSX even if you're on Windows, it's the one that will work with MoI v3 or v4, the original will only work with MoI v2), and then ImportPointFile http://kyticka.webzdarma.cz/3d/moi/#ImportPointFile which has options to build either points, polylines, or a curve from the imported point sequence.
