I live in Tennessee,  close to the Mississippi & Alabama state lines,  so I do tons of multi-state returns.  Tennessee has no state income tax either, but to get the state apportionment schedules to work correctly, Ii have to put the Tennessee wages in the state wages section also. I just put TN for the state and the # 1 in state # column, (or # 2 , etc), the correct wages for my state in that column and -0- in state income tax.  Worked for as long as i have used ProSeries, which is approaching  2 decades.

I don't believe Texas has an income tax--therefore no state id #
