Does Auto-Numbering Questions affect Carry Forward Statements or Advanced Randomization?

I have various Carry-Forward Statements in my survey that show the items that were not shown in the previous question. Plus I have Advanced Randomization in all the questions. However, I would like to update the question numbers so they are in sequential order (right now they seem messy). If I use the "Auto-Numbering Questions" in Tools, will that mess up my survey in any way (Carry-Forward Statements, or Advanced Randomization)?

No, it won't. When you auto-number it changes the question labels (e.g., Q1), but QIDs stay the same. Carry-Forward, etc. are all based on QIDs.
