What do you mean by no way to revise.  Can't you put your curser at the end of the amount and backspace to delete, or just select the entire number and delete?  If nothing else, instead of changing that number just add a new expense for the difference between what you already entered and want to enter now.  These categories are really just for for your convenience.  The IRS could not care less if you split a deduction between two entries.

Thanks, that worked to just delete wrong # and paste in correct number. The web page gave No indication that you could do that. Problem solved.

then click on the Jump To.  

Go back through the interview until you find the number you want to correct.
