    Typically newer versions of software can read files from the older version. Best to back up the files first and keep a copy of Works 3.5 in case.

    Looks as though I may be wrong: Technology Questions - View Single Post - How to read Works 4 .wps files in Vista [Works 9?]
    You can try opening them on a computer that has Excel installed then save them as .xls.

    If you still have access to the older computer, you can try putting a newer version of Works on it, loading and resaving your Works documents. I know Works 9.0 can read Works 6.0 or 7.0 docs, so that's the format you want to try to get them into.
