Resolving error message on 1041 return: cannot delete a name field!

Trust return, CA 541 form, in "Other Information", error message requiring the First Name field to be blank. BUT, everytime I delete the information there, it keeps coming back. I have tried both delete, and backspace, and even entering spaces instead of the name that was there (erroneously). I cannot clear the error message! Help.... Thank you!

It may be picking it up from the federal return, so when you delete it in the CA return, it just repopulates.

I havent had any issues with the 541, but its been a ew weeks since Ive prepared one.

Thank you Just-Lisa-Now. After beating my head against the proverbial wall for a while, I called Intuit this morning, and the solution was 1 of 2 things: 1) go back and correct 2024 trust return (the "About this line" prompt said it was pulling info from 2024 return), which I did, and/or 2) Delete CA trust return and then re-do it. Anyway, I solved the problem and we're all done now!! Yay! ProSeries phone support has been very good this year, MUCH better than past years. 

Thanks again!
