On with Intuit now.  Useless.  Don't know about the problem.  Have no answers.  Just hung up with ProSeries/Intuit.  They acknowledge the error exists.  Their internal instructions are" just enter a 0 in that "Required RMD amount" field.  It does make the errors disappear.  I asked if Intuit is planning on releasing a patch.  She did not know, but next Tuesday is their next scheduled system update.  I asked if entering the 0 is a reporting issue (I personally don't see why it would be.  Saying the RMD amount is zero, and reporting an amount over zero doesn't have any tax impact that I can foresee), but of course, they have no idea.
