Updating large book and contents from FM 7.2 to FM 2015

Question

I am updating a book with about 160 chapters from FM 7.2 to FM 2015.  What would be the smartest and quickest way to do this?  I don't mind learning to use a script.  Previously struggled a bit with FrameScript and the new built-in script seems to be similar, but would like to break through that barrier. I have been away from FM for a few years but now have to get this monster up to date.  I believe that it is pretty clean so not anticipating much trouble with the conversion. Any tips really appreciated

I do the same thing as Charles.Work on a copy of the original.Open the book file. Save the book file to update it to 2015.With your cursor in the book window, hold the Shift key and select File > Open all Files in Book.*With your cursor in the book window, hold the Shift key and select File > Save all Files in Book.With your cursor in the book window, hold the Shift key and select File > Close all Files in Book.Done!~~~* This is the one that requires that you have enough resources to be able to open all the files in the book. Saving may take a few minutes. That's a good time for a coffee break.
