I have friend who I convinced to buy TMG and she is having the exact same problem!
I sure hope somebody has an answer for this soon!!
She just received TMG today and is a very unhappy camper!

7/21/09 I have just purchased TMG last night and have had the SAME experience in trying to import FTM version 2006 (better than any newer version of FTM)--"declare DLL call caused an exception 86 GBIMPEXHIBITS. I was left to abort. Retry and ignore did not work. I turned the firewall off making sure security and virus adware were not affecting it. Same thing on download--it stopped at 36%/38%. When I looked at the open file I see data there--I am unsure how much, however, I can't not manuver with "Edit>Find a person" because it is "grayed out." I have a 80GB file and some 8,600 names in the data. Hello, we need assistance here, someone. Thanks.
