Active duty and reserves in one year

My "status" in Personal Info says that I was in the Reserves all year, but I wasn't.  It was a 75-25% split between Reserves and Active Duty.  How do I get that reflected accurately?

You don't have to correct anything; as long as you checked that you "served in the military in 2016 (Active Duty or Reserves)",  the program will ask the same questions pertaining to military tax issues.

It will just ask them in a different order. Your tax return won't be affected by the allocation of time between Active Duty and Reserves.
