I can access my files but there's a problem

I was able to access my money file and restore my backup
from the 26th which was the last day I was able to access
it. Everything is fine except for one strange thing. All
of my balances for all of my accounts are about
$628,743,688,565,700.00. Everywhere that a balance is
shown in the program it has a number that is almost the
same, within $100.00. When I click on the Account List
icon, next to subtotal for my bank accounts and credit
accounts it displays: ##err##. How the heck do I fix
this? All of the information in each account is correct
for deposits and withdrawals, but's it's kind of nice to
know my balances. I have a backup from 1 or 2 weeks ago I
can use, but don't want to lose everything since that
backup. Any help on fixing these screwy balances would be
apprecciated.

If you have a similar problem, it turned out to be really
easy to fix. Just click on file, repair money file, and
then quick file repair. It took a few seconds and all my
balances were fine. Thank god I have access to my money
file again. Now I have to consider if I want to keep
using passport.

Make a backup to a different location - in other words don't overwrite a
good backup, then try a Quick File Repair.
