Won't accept correct address on 1099-INT

I am entering the correct address on SCH B form 1099-INT but Turbo tax says i must enter at least one letter or there is an incorrect character.  It won't let me past this to file the return(s).

If you imported the 1099-INT, delete it and re-enter it manually.

  1. Open your return.
  2. In the search box type form 1099-INT
  3. Select jump to 1099-INT
  4. On the screen Here's the Interest we have so far 
  5. Select Delete next to the imported 1099-int.
  6. Select Add another 1099-INT, then Continue.
  7. Select I'll Type it myself and continue.
  8.  Enter the name of the bank, financial institution or other payer of the interest you received and the amount.
