Thanks for the reply.  I have no problem getting the numbers entered.  It's the final calculation the program makes.  DOT truckers can use 80% of meals but the program uses 50% even though I have the DOT box checked.  I did one several years ago and just over rid the 50% calc and made it 80%.  I was able to efile.  Now it will not let you efile with the override.  Don't need this for Fed return, just the NYS return.  The NY does not show the override, so I will file that, then remove override and file Fed.
