How can I keep Account Name & Description from changing to N/A?

I opened my quicken file today to on find N/A in my account and description columns.
1. Build 27.1.30.21
2. saved bad file to a different name.
3. ran validate/repair on bad file, with no results - N/A remained.
4. took screen captures
5. noticed banking value very large negative
6. only way I could find large negative was to unhide accounts for list until found bad account. However, opening bad account did not show anything wrong. Forced to delete year 1998 hidden account. This fixed very negative number but N/A still there.
7. ran report for last two days so I can reenter in yesterday's restored backup. I will have to guess at account name.
****** this makes me nervous, should I really don't want to try another financial software. I like to keep all my financial history *****

As to the large negative amount showing in your account balances, the Federal Government thanks you for taking over your share of the Federal Deficit.Just kidding.
Sorry, couldn't help it.
Your data file has gotten damaged beyond repair. Please restore your Quicken data file from a Manual or Automatic Backup taken prior to the problem first occurring, if necessary going back to older backups until you find a file that does not exhibit these symptoms.
