Bah, that's par for the course.  I wouldn't trust TurboTax to work right
either.  I tried it a few years ago, and it transferred things from the
wrong fields on the federal form to the wrong fields on the state form,
so I ended up manually doing my taxes anyway.  I spent an hour on the
phone with tech support, explaining to them exactly where the problem
was, and they sent me a new disk with exactly the same problem.

If I can't trust the software to work correctly, I am going to have to
do my taxes by hand to double check the software, in which case I might
as well not waste money on the software.

BTW: Are you a Georgia Tech person?
