If the figure or caption number is not contained within a gray field, follow the steps described in the Captions for Figures and Tables.Within your appendix, place your cursor at the beginning of the first figure or table caption to be revised.Complete all steps in one operation – don’t stop until you’ve edited all captions, updated the List of Tables and List of Figures, and saved your file. Repeat steps 4-5 for all tables/figures in all your appendices. Start with the first figure/table in Appendix A and complete steps 1-5. The order in which these steps are completed is extremely sensitive. If you add tables or figures in an appendix, Word uses a continuation of the chapter numbering scheme (5-1, 5-2, etc.) instead of the A-1, A-2, A-3 format that’s required. Table and figure captions within appendices Use Heading 6 style for the main heading in appendices and Headings 7, 8, and 9 styles for subheadings within appendices. Appendices should be labeled in alphabetical sequence, for example, Appendix A, Appendix B, and so on.
