Thanks Chris, Godfrey and others who have answered my question.  I should 
have thought of that.  Such a wealth of knowledge on this group.

I just did it in Lightroom CC. This should work in other versions, too.

Go to the TONE CURVE. Its a diagonal line going from the bottom left
(black) to the top right (white) of the curves graph. Take the bottom left
end of the line and move it to the right, then pull the top right end of
the line to the left till both are at or very near the 50% position. The
line should then be vertical.
