Enter 1099B in turbotax

My mother died in 2003. In 2015 I received notice of “found money” from NY State, and I had them sell what turned out to be shares of MetLife stock, and forward the proceeds. For 2016 taxes I received a 1099-B The box at the top says “CANNOT DETERMINE THE BOX TO CHECK”. Only sale date, amount,  Box 5 checked, and Box 6 Gross proceeds were provided on the form. How do I fill out Turbotax?
