File a new 2005 form 1065, but write "Amended Return" across
the top, not "corrected return." And then, if any partners
wish to file a 1040X for themselves, they may certainly do
so independently of the partnership using a 1040
Do this amendment first, and the schedules will be correct.
Then you do the 2006 form 1065. No errors atall.
