Delete text from file
Hi i also have a similar kindaa requirement. I have a file like this :
1. An audit charter should:
A. be dynamic and change often to coincide with the changing nature of technology and the audit profession.
B. clearly state audit objectives for the delegation of authority for the maintenance and review of internal controls.
C. document the audit procedures designed to achieve the planned audit objectives.
D. outline the overall authority, scope and responsibilities of the audit function.
The correct answer is:
D. outline the overall authority, scope and responsibilities of the audit function.
Explanation:
An audit charter should state management's objectives for, and delegation of authority to, IS audit. This charter should not significantly change over time and should be approved at the highest level of management. The audit charter would not be at a detail level and therefore would not include specific audit objectives or procedures.
Area: 1
2. During a review of the controls over the process of defining IT service levels, an IS auditor would MOST likely interview the:
A. systems programmer.
B. legal staff.
C. business unit manager.
D. application programmer.
The correct answer is:
C. business unit manager.
Explanation:
Understanding the business requirements is key in defining the service levels. While each of the other entities listed may provide some definition, the best choice here is the business unit manager, because of the knowledge this person has of the requirements of the organization.
Area: 1

.and so on
I want to get rid of the explanation text and Answer text. Is there anyway i can do it?
