I am replying to myself
For anyone else dealing with sale of land and you get the error message and can't go back and edit, the only thing that works is close return, Quit Turbotax, and re-boot. Then you can click on Investment Income - stocks, bonds, crypto, other and you will not get the error message
You enter sale of vacant land per the path in my earlier post. investment income, first selection underneath.
Caution - if you're working on more than one tax return, you have to quit turbotax and re-boot in between working with each one or the error message still appears in the other return.
Definitely something wrong with software.
Then the Investment income where you enter 1099-B or 1099-S (for other than your home) works
