HI Joey!! You can open files created in Sonar 2 in Sonar 3 and 4 however, if you need to save the file after altering it then, you won't be able to open it again in Sonar 2. If you want to open the unaltered file in Sonar 2, when you save the file in Sonar 3 or 4, rename it. That way you will be able to open the unaltered version of the file that was created in Sonar 2. This is because you will have two .cwp files. Regarding VSampler, well, you could leave your Sonar 3 installation intact thus keeping VSampler on your system or, you could download the full version from there site. The cereal number that you have will allow you to use it from within Sonar however, it won't allow you to use VSampler as a stand alone soft synthe with other sequencing packages. VSampler doesn't ship with Sonar 4 so, you will need to use one of the options as outlined above.
