@RachelTSites How far off are the balances, anyway? Is the Write Checks window balance higher, or is the check register balance higher?
There are a few things that could be wrong, but I don't think any of them would actually resolve the problem, only satiate curiosity about what happened.
The first and easiest is to see if there is an item in the register for an amount equal to the difference between the two balances. If there is, than for some reason, QuickBooks isn't using that particular item in its calculations for the Write Checks balance.
The second doesn't have a way to verify; it could be that the Write Checks window has some errors in its internal math, since you already stated that the balance sheet had the correct balance.
The third is that it's just a visual bug, and I wouldn't know how to check that out at all; too far up the code monkey ladder for my understanding.
This is probably one of the few instances where rebuilding or otherwise repairing your QuickBooks file would actually help.
