Is there a wizard or any easy way of updating the IP versions in EDK?

If you are refering to changing the version used in a design, then I find the easiest way is to manually edit the mhs file.

If you are refering to bumping the version of a custom IP, then I find a tool with file search and replace is the easiest.

Thanks for the reply.  I tried doing it manually but I got a lot of errors.  I was hoping that there was a wizard that would work.

The only wizard is the option within creating custom IP. You can look at the driver examples for the edk IP. Look in your EDK install dir ISE_DS/EDK/sw/XilinxProcessorIPLib/drivers. You will recognize the same dir structure as a custom driver where there's a data and src directory for each driver.

Is this also the best way to determine what the best version to use is?  For instance what version is best to use a or b?

I always reference the newer version (b is newer than a).
