Multiple ?Choice Question Request-Order of Question

Hi all,

I have a document with over 850 MCQs but the order of the questions are not showing sequentially. For example, the first 10 questions are sequentially listed from 1 thru 10. After that I have another set of questions that are listed as "Question 1:" thru "Question 24:" and so on.

I hope someone can sort it out to see which way is the best way to rename all the question from 1 to infinite or until it finds the last question in the document

If you look at the order of the questions they are not in numerical sequence.

I hope that someone can help me.

Hello arnelgp, thank you for the code. Sorry, really appreciate the time you put into this. I was out for a couple of days. The code is working and it is sorting the questions number. Not sure if I have to do another posting on this but it will be possible to renumber the questions from Question 1: until it finds the latest question. Thank you so much.

here again, to sequencially renumber the questions.
