Default Appendix Page Numbering

Hello,

This question is somewhat complex and I have already done a substantial amount of searching on the internet and cannot find an answer.

My document contains section headings that use the built-in styles of Heading 1, Heading 2, etc. However, I needed Appendices that also gave me the ability to have sections. For example, Appendix A, A.1, A.1.1, A.1.2, etc. So I created new styles for each appendix section and a new multi-level list to attach to those styles. This resulted in me getting the functionality needed for the appendices.

However, now this is where the problem lies, my page numbering requires me to number pages for the appendix as such, A-1, A-2, etc. Since I didn't use one of the built-in headings, I cannot format my page number to include the chapter heading. I realize that I could just insert the page number and stick a "A-" in front of it. But the table of contents (TOC) will still only display the page number not including the "A-", so the TOC will show pages numbers incrementing and then go back to 1 when the appendix is reached.

So the question is...How can I insert a page number (as a field or macro or whatever) that would include the appendix letter and page number both in the footer and the table of contents?

You will have to use built-in headings for the appendix headings as well. See http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...ppendixes.html and http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Numbering/ChapterNumber.htm.
