Default Listing the headings with a seq number

Following on from a previous question I am creating a document which inserts a number of appendices each one numbered with the Seq command as follows

The number of Appendices may change

You may want to look at How to number headings and figures in Appendixes in Microsoft Word by Shauna Kelly.

You can do this with a Table of Contents, or a cross-reference if you use the method given by Shauna.
This does not involve using the SEQ field. For that you would need to take extra steps to bookmark each Appendix Heading.

There are good reasons to make use of the article for which Charles provided a link (How to number headings and figures in Appendixes in Microsoft Word | ShaunaKelly.com).

On the other hand, if you prefer not to apply numbering to headings and just use SEQ fields, that is going to work too. You will have to create two sequences, one for the main chapters and a separate sequence for the appendix. If you want multilevel numbering, SEQ fields will be a far more difficult approach, though.
