    An alert dialog appears, asking you if you want to delete the question. Choose Yes to delete the question from the question bank. The question will be deleted from the Edit Questions window and its button in the Select Questions window will also disappear from the numbered grid.

If you delete a question that is not the last question in a chapter, the consecutive numerical sequence of the remaining questions in the database will be interrupted. If you wish to close the gaps created by deleted questions, you will need to renumber the affected questions. (For more information see Renumbering Questions Within a Chapter .)

IMPORTANT: If you have previously created tests that include questions that have been deleted from the question bank, your test files will be altered.
