need help with form 4797 - entered sale of deleted rental property

I sold my rental property in Feb 2024; tenant moved out in Dec 2023, so no rental income at all in 2024.   When I was going thru the interview section of Schedule E, I checked the box that I sold this asset in 2024.   But, when I answered that I didn't try to rent it in 2024 (it was listed for sale), the interview told me to delete the asset from Schedule and when I clicked ok, it deleted it completely (I thought it would just removed from Sch E).   So, I had to report the sale in the interview section under Sale of Business aAssets.  I referred to my copy of the Depreciation & Amortization Report from 2023 to calculate the appropriate section 1231 and 1250 allocations/entries for form 4797 and entered the land and building figures as separate entries under the sale of business assets interview section.   But the problem is that Turbo Tax is putting both the land and building into Section III of 4797 (as Property A and Property B).  I went to the forms section to try to manually enter the land into Section I of 4797, but it's all grayed out.   How can I get the land into Section I of 4797?
