Captivate 9 Relative Page Numbers in Quiz

I have built a quiz in Captivate 9 with a total of five questions, and each question slide has relative page numbering "Question X of Y" in the header. When I am working in Captivate, the first quiz question displays "Question 1 of 5" in the header, as expected. However, in Publish and Preview modes, these headers are thrown off, with the first quiz question displaying "Question 2 of 6" in the header, and subsequent headers also thrown off. Any thoughts as to what is going on?

You probably have somewhere before the quiz an object where scoring is turned on. Check the Advanced Interaction panel (F9) to check.

Dear Lilybiri: You're right. Before the quiz questions begin, there is a slide that introduces the quiz. Although it does not contain a quiz question, I included it in the quiz so that, if the user fails and elects to retake the quiz, he or she will be returned to the introductory slide. Is there a way to return the user to the introductory slide without having that slide included in scoring? Cheers, Sarah.

Use the system variable cpQuizInfoAttempts. Create a conditional action to run On Enter for the first quiz slide:

   IF cpQuizInfoAttempts is greater than 1

       Jump to slide....            where you indicate the intro slide

   ELSE
