Hey there jeffhoch!
I have an article for you that can help you make sure you get the best experience from upgrading to Final Cut Pro X. That article can be found here:
Final Cut Pro X: Best practices for updating

Naturally, the answer to your question is that yes, your projects will be affected. They will have to be upgraded in order to comply with Final Cut Pro X. This should not affect the projects negatively, but I will stress that the article gives you information on backing up your projects and events, and I would definitely recommend that as well:
Backing up your Projects and Events
See Back up Projects, your Project Library, and Events in Final Cut Pro X for instructions.When backing up your projects and Events be sure to place copies of them inside a new backup folder. This will prevent Final Cut Pro X from automatically opening your backup Projects and Events.
Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.
