How do I correct "Basis in Roth IRA" on the IRA Info Worksheet?

I found the answer myself.  Even though we're ineligible for Roth contributions, we established our bases by cumulating prior years.  We apparently missed on or two.  To make the basis correction, I had to go to Ded & Cred/Traditional & Roth  Edit, select Roth IRA for T/P & Spouse, and follow the prompts.  Eventually, it'll ask for Roth Basis.  That's where the correction is made.  Must do the drill for each taxpayer.
