Assessing a Double Error

Simple question. When an infielder takes a routine ground ball, fails to field it cleanly (Error #1), and then hurries a throw to first base, throwing the ball over the first baseman's head allowing the runner to advance to second base (Error #2), what's the required sequence necessary to score the two errors on the same play to the same fielder?
It appears this needs to be scored in 'two' scoring sequences, but I'm simply not sure I'm doing it right.

If you turn off the "Minimize Questions" option, then you will be asked about the batter after they reach first place. So if you are saying there are two errors on the play, you would enter that the Batter is Safe at first because of a fielding error, it will then ask what happened to the batter after making it to first, and you would enter Safe at Second due to Throwing error.
If you have Minimize Questions OFF (the default), then you would have to tap the runner at first (the original batter) and advance him to second on error.

Yep, turning off the 'Minimize Questions' option solved the issue for me when I just tested it. Thank you for your help.
