How to update an FM database

I've been developing my own FM database for some time now and am in need of updating my existing database with a newer version. Since the newer version was developed separately from the original I now need to update the original while keeping all my data intact.

Since this is a common activity I was hoping that there would be an existing utility (or FM Server function) that would automate this process, but I've been told by one FM developer that there is no such thing.

Is this true? If so, how do you update an existing database with a new version and keep all your data intact? Do you have to write a script?

Thanks! This looks like a good solution and as a bonus it's priced right ($199).
