re: 2.  I would strongly recommend MetaDataMagic from New Millennium as an almost essential tool for conversion if you have many files to convert.  I have used it for 8 or 9 conversions of systems ranging from 40 to 120 files.  Your databases will "just convert" but MDM has some excellent internal tools - Conversion Analysis reports, File Reference Fixer.
There as some really good articles at FMi to help you - eg.  http://help.filemaker.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/750/~/conversion-%26-migration%3A-things-to-think-about-before-converting-your-file(s)-to
