Do you use a full stop after a question mark?

No, you do not. A question mark or exclamation point replaces a full stop. ********************************* The answer above is correct. An exclamation or question mark replaces the full stop and signals the end of the sentence! ********************************* I respectfully point out that is does matter...the question mark and the exclamation mark come first, followed by the full stop.
