The latch is only held on by that one screw. Once it's removed, you should be able to remove the cover. If it's stuck, use a flat putty knife to gently pop it out.

Where is screw that needs to be removed to replace sliding screen door latch on Pella sliding screen door. Wooden insert with round Pella insignia located in handle covers screws providing access to latch mechanism. How do I get that panel off to take latch assembly apart?

The screw is located under the round Pella logo. I usually pop it off with a slotted screwdriver, or anything flat and stiff I happen to have on hand, such as the corner of a putty knife.
