According magento,there are 3 sales table where magento is save customer related

• sales_flat_order
• sales_flat_order_address
• sales_flat_order_grid

sales_flat_order table

customer_id: here customer id save.for guest user it save as NULL.You need to update this column by customer id.

customer_is_guest: it save as 1 when guest is saved an order and it value should be 0 when customer is register.

customer_group_id: Need update customer group by customer group id .

sales_flat_order_grid table

customer_id: here customer id save.for guest user it save as NULL.You need to update this column by customer id.

sales_flat_order_address

customer_address_id: for guest user it value is Null. You need update by customer address id whenever try transfer order

customer_id: here customer id save.for guest user it save as NULL.You need to update this column by customer id.

Code like:

$CustomerId=5;
$customerAddId=20;
$custommergrop=3;
$orderIncrementId=$this->getLastOrderId();
$orderObject=Mage::getModel('sales/order')->loadByIncrementId($orderIncrementId);
$billingId    = $orderObject->getBillingAddress()->getId();
$shipping   = $orderObject->isVirtual() ? null : $orderObject->getShippingAddress();

$billingObjct=Mage::getModel('sales/order_address')->load($billingId);
$billingObjct->setData('customer_id',$CustomerId);
$billingObjct->setData('customer_address_id',$customerAddId);
$billingObjct->save();

if($shipping){  
 $shippingAddressid=$orderObject->getShippingAddress()->getId();
$shippingAddressObject=Mage::getModel('sales/order_address')->load($shippingAddressid);
$shippingAddressObject->setData('customer_id',$CustomerId);
$shippingAddressObject->setData('customer_address_id',$customerAddId);
$shippingAddressObject->save();
}

$orderObject->setData('customer_id',$CustomerId);
$orderObject->setData('customer_is_guest',NULL); /*if null not work then try 0  instead of NULL*/
$orderObject->setData('customer_group_id',$custommergrop);
$orderObject->save();
