Seth rated Family Tree Maker 16 as "Gold" but I cannot get it to run

I've installed CrossOver for MAC on my new MacBook Pro and then simply installed Family Tree Maker 16 (FTM16). FTM16 boots up thru CrossOver, but any activity in the FTM16 data entry screens quickly brings up the following error message:

"Microsoft Visual C + + Runtime Library - - - Runtime Error! - - - Program: C:\Program Files\Family Tree Maker 16\FTW.exe - - - This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way - " and then the program simply closes.

This happens both with trying to open existing files that were migrated over from a PC and with any attempts to create a new file from within the MAC/CrossOver application.

An individual named Seth had previously rated FTM16 as "Gold" in the Codeweavers website in mid 2008 - which indicates he is running the program with little or no problems.

I'd appreciate any comments or suggestions anyone might have.
