I am doing a degree project report, and have outline numbering working.
However, I want the numbering for the Appendices to go A, A.1, A.2, B and so
on, wherease the body of the report goes 1, 1.1, 1.2, 2 and so on.

I've read the Shaun Kelly link and it doesn't seem to mention this.

I played around with a section break to no avail.

I don't want the document in two parts - there are so many references from
the actual report to the appendices which have to be able to update if the
numbering in the appendic changes.

So, is this possible? Or is it a wild goose change that I might as well
give up on right now?

TIA
