Lost files during transfer from one iMac to a new one.
I recently got a new mac and transferred my data but my ms office files did not convert, because system says I need an upgrade. Will my files return once I get an upgraded MS office.

Your files migrated just fine. What did not migrate is MS Office for two reasons:
And yes, once you have installed a 64bit version of Office for Mac your files will work just like they did on the old computer.
Finally, you have alternatives to Office for Mac, there is Libre Office which is web based and runs just like the MS version. You can also subscribe to Microsoft's 365 and remember the Apple Pages and Numbers apps will read and write to MS format.
