Captions in Appendix in Microsoft Word

In this video I go over how to make captions for figures, tables, equations, etc which are located in the appendix of a report. It is very simple to change it and the table of figures automatically includes the appendix captions. What I mean by appendix captions is that instead of, for example, Figure 3.4: stuff, you can make it appear like Figure B.4, which uses the appendix header letter in the caption. If you are writing a report of any kind and need an appendix this video is a must watch!

This method works perfectly but there is a problem with it which I noticed later. The numbering only works for the first appendix. Starting from the second appendix, instead of showing B1, it shows B3. Meaning, the numeric part continues from the previous appendix. To the best of my knowledge, each appendix should start from 1 i.e. A1, A2, ... and B1, B2, ... not A1, A2, B3, B4. 

Do you have any idea how I can also fix this problem? 

appreciate your feedback.

Your numbering for Appendix B figures starts at B.3. How do you fix it so it starts at B.1?

When I go into "Edit Field" there is nothing that says Appendix. So my appendix caption says "Figure 0-21"
