How to open MS Works docs

I need help to open MS Works documents. Today I installed AOO for the first time. I then opened AOO text @ tried to open a Works text doc with file extension .wps which resulted in a Filter window which didn't have MS Works listed. To add this programme, it said to use Setup which I installed and that's where I'm up to now.
I'd like to know how to add MS Works word and spreadsheet files to the AOO list, please, so I can open and use these files.

OpenOffice does not support .WPS files. Use http://www.zamzar.com to convert these to OO formats.

Or you can try the LibreOffice. It can open the wps files.

Whichever method you use, you should move away form the .wps format to the international standard Opendocument formats (.odt, .ods etc).
