If not, there may be a neat workaround. Are you using Windows? (You kept that bit a secret!) If so, download and install the free viewer for Microsoft Word document files from the Microsoft web site. Open your Works file in this. (It accepts Works files.) Select all the text and copy-and-paste it directly into a new OpenOffice Writer document. This will preserve most of the formatting, at least.

I trust this helps.

It won't even come close to preserving the formatting if the Word document has any complexity. I find that the conversion of Word docs leaves much to be desired.
