File Conversion

My former computer had Windows 3.11. After upgrading to a new computer with Windows 98/Office 2000, I find that I cannot read my old files which are listed as .wps or wdb. I was told that these files should convert automatically but they don't. We have tried everything. I considered loading 3.x in a sub-directory but at this point I'm not sure if that will confuse my other programs. Any suggestions are "Very Much Welcome".
I think I've run into this before. What you have is a FAT problem. Your Windows 3.1 machine had FAT16 for the file system. Your current machine is running on a FAT32 file system, which takes advantage of the bigger hard drives. File format issues are freaky between the two. A disk formatted in one can't even be read in the other usually.
