Retirement tax questions

I tried that in the desktop software.  If I change the original tax return I saved earlier, I can see the tax refund number changes.  In the original return I answered "what did you do with the money from..." with "something else."  That was my mistake.  Now in the amend, I was asked different questions about my work retirement coverage which I was not asked in original return.  Now I kind of can't get back to where I should be.  It keeps thinking I made excessive contribution.  What was wrong?
