As far as reading a native .wps file, Abiword is your best bet.

Later versions of works include a crippled version of Word that write
broken .doc files.  Word has a special process for opening those .doc
files (it takes longer). Then an edited file from MS Word in Office can
no longer be opened by Word in Works.

I look forward to the day when that crappy company is bankrupt from
loosing lawsuits for defective products.
