Thank you very much for the information. The stock was bought in the public market, so as you stated, no adjustment should be necessary for the capital loss carryover.
I realize that this whole thing isn't that significant, but I still would like to understand the meaning of the sequence of screens that username VAer posted in the original message in this sequence. Up until the time I started working on my 2022 taxes, I had no awareness of "the 2021 Schedule D you used for AMT". The screen asks you to look at the numbers and make sure all of the amounts are correct. Based on the fact that I still don't know where the numbers that are populating the fields on my PC came from, I certainly cannot verify that the numbers are correct. Am I to understand that the only purpose of these entries is to determine the correct loss carryover for 2023? I just feel that asking a user to verify numbers when they don't know the origin of the data is confusing at least.
Thanks to everyone who responded for your help.
