Windows Vista does not officially support booting from a FAT32 drive, although it is technically possible. Vista supports FAT32 on Flash drives and hard drives, although it will not format a hard drive over 32 GB as FAT32.

Will windows xp files saved on an external hard drive be automatically converted in windows vista format?

There's no such thing as Windows XP format or Windows Vista format. You should check however if your external hard drive uses an NTFS or FAT32 partition table. You can see that by right-clicking the drive (C, D, E, ..) and clicking properties. If it uses NTFS it will be no problem for Vista. If it's FAT32, then google for a way to convert it to NTFS. No big deal.
