Here's what I just did. I saved a new copy of the return, deleted the 1098-MISC and the Rental Properties and Royalties (I had not done that second step last time). I re-entered both from scratch again and it is correct. BTW I compared answers on each copy and they matched. So not sure what caused the hiccup but it is resolved.
I appreciate the responses. It at least confirmed I was doing it right.
I work in IT so I am familiar with this kind of thing happening. But it helped having the input.
