I just found the box I needed to check to be sent to the next screen where I could give the information about my Qualified Charitable Distribution. The 1099-R I received from my IRA provider indicated only that I had taken a distribution from my IRA. It also stated that the taxable amount was not determined. So when I entered this 1099-R in Turbo Tax it showed it as a taxable distribution. The following screen listed about 9 questions about that distribution. One of them was, "Was any amount of this distribution given to charity?" That was the box I had originally missed. Once I clicked on that box, it took me to the screen where I could enter the information about the charitable distribution. Then the full amount became exempt from taxation.
