I’ve always opened Works spreadsheets OK in Oo but I see from another reply 
that this isn’t always straightforward.
The only issue I’ve had with opening Works files myself is with Works database 
files.  There may be a better way but I found that I had to export as .csv and 
then open the .csv as an Oo spreadsheet.  Apparently the database in Works 
functions very differently from decent databases..

Hello, I hope someone can clarify this for me: Wanting to complete my switch 
from  MSFT  Works to Open Office. All of my Works files are showing up on 
OOO330m20 (Build 9567), but I'm not sure if that will still be the case once I 
uninstall Works or what I need to do to transfer them over.  
Thank you for any help!
