I entered -0- on line 26g because there should be no recapture of depreciation, but the program still puts the whole amount of the capital gain on the Schedule K, and then on the K-1's under both unrecaptured 1250 gain and section 1231 capital gain.


 

Line 26g is for "recapture" (depreciation in excess of straight-line).  That is completely different than "Unrecaptured Section 1250 Gain" (gain due to the basis reduction using straight-line depreciation).

So if you had straight-line depreciation and if you had a gain on 1250 property, you SHOULD have Unrecaptured Section 1250 Gain on the K-1.

So you did NOT report the sale of any real estate?

Yes, I did report a sale on Part III of form 4797 on the partnership return.  I entered -0- on line 26g because there should be no recapture of depreciation, but the program still puts the whole amount of the capital gain on the Schedule K, and then on the K-1's under both unrecaptured 1250 gain and section 1231 capital gain.
