Special name control, what should it be?

I am doing a Estate Tax Return using TT Business. The return is for a inherited house sale I got a 1099S. I get a question on the review about the "Special Name Control" box. It requires a 4 letter input. The tax return is for the Estate of Mary Howe. I believe the box should contain ESTA?

For an estate, the Name Control is the first four characters of the deceased individual's last name.  In your case, the Name Control would be HOWE.
