No special action is needed. When the program used to create or edit is installed on either system, the underlying operating system is irrelevant. Thus if Program X on Windows 7 creates File Y, you can open File Y on Windows Vista by installing Program X, and vice versa.

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.
