Entered incorrect social security number for dependent. How do I enter the correct number?

I went back to my 1040 in Turbo Tax to enter the dependents correct social security number and the program will not let me change the number.

In the rejected notice from Turbo Tax it says we will help correct this. I have not seen any help yet. Where is it??

If you are unable to change the social security number directly on the Form 1040, can you access the Personal Info tab?
