I went in to reconcile as usual and when I looked at the balance in the reconcile box, it did not agree with my balance in QB and my statement. The opening balance on reconcile screen does not match balance in QB and statement. How do I correct this, and how did it happen? The last reconcile was correct, I printed it out and it had the correct balance. HELP!!!!!

It happens... usually because a reconciled transaction is deleted or edited in some way.
Try setting the ending balance to what SHOULD be the opening balance (previous month's ending balance), click reconcile, and look for any transactions that were either UNchecked as reconciled (from your previous statement) or are checked as cleared (and they shouldn't be). Fix the errors and reconcile again. You should be good to go.
