I am unable to open text files created on Word before I upgraded my MacBook

I cannot open text files I created on Word before I upgraded my MacBook. Is does no good to put .docx after the title. The newer Macs came with Pages. Is that why?

If outdated is not the issue...


Ask this is in Microsoft's Forums: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com. Being you are using Word, and not a Pages here, you'll likely get the answer you need there.
