splitting a refund into different bank accounts

I know the IRS allows direct deposit into more than one bank account.  But in my 14 years of using Pro Series, I have never had a need for this.  Have clients filing jointly, but are going through a divorce, so they want the refund put half into each of their bank accounts.  I don't see anywhere in Pro Series to put separate bank accounts.  Is there a way to do this?

Thanks for the reply.  When I went to the IRS frequently asked questions, I saw form 8888 mentioned, but it had said if you file a paper return to use it.  I should have looked at the form in Pro series because now that I do, it clearly shows me I should use this form.
