1099-Div ID Number-3 error. Turbo Tax is acting as if I have a 1099 DIV in my name when I do not. How do I delete my name/info?

Somehow on my state return it asked for name and SSN for a div and is now asking for a 1099 DIV ID number under my name when I do not have one to report for this tax year.  How do I delete this info so it is reported correctly?
