Is it possible to import files created in version 1.1 to version 9 easily? Where can I find tips on this? Thanks.

Can you just clarify, are you trying to import version 1.1 files into Version 9 - or version 2009.
Both should be possible but if you are thinking about version 9 then before you do it can I suggest it might be time to think of an upgrade to version 2006 or 2009 which are the latest supported versions. I would forget about version 2008 which isn't as good as 2006 or 2009.
Basically all you need to do is install the new version on your computer, go to FILE and OPEN and find the previous master file from the earlier version.
The following snippet from the FTM online help confirms this!

Import not working
I have a folder with four FTW files from 2004 and one FTM file from 1994. Each of the FTW files has a companion file with FBK extension. I tried importing one of each file type and they all failed with error message “The import failed because on unknown error occurred”. When I close the dialogue window, I get another dialogue window telling me it’s “Analyzing file…” but never stops. I have to use task mgr to kill the task. What am I doing wrong?

Instead of trying to import one of the FTW files, try to open it (FILE/OPEN)
