General ⇒ separate list of tables for appendix

[nadeem]

Hi,

I am using a book.cls style to write my thesis. I have tables in the main matter, as well as in the two appendices. Currently all the tables show up in one list of tables. However, I want a separate list of tables for the appendices. A quick response would be much appreciated.

Current output for list of tables is something like this:

Table 4.1 Some statistical data ..... 51
Table 4.2 Some more data ............ 51
...
Table A.1 Long table in appendix A .. 80
Table A.2 Long table in appendix A .. 83
...
Table B.1 Long table in appendix A .. 87
Table B.2 Long table in appendix A .. 89

For appendix tables, I want the following on a separate page:
List of Appendix Tables
Table A.1 Long table in appendix A .. 80
Table A.2 Long table in appendix A .. 83
...
Table B.1 Long table in appendix A .. 87
Table B.2 Long table in appendix A .. 89

BTW, I am using longtable in appendices and table in the main matter.
Thanks,
Nadeem

I think you can define a new float table2 and use that in the appendix. See the float package for details.

\floatstyle{plain}
\newfloat{table2}{thpb}{tab2}[chapter]
\floatname{table2}{Table}
\newcommand{\listoftable2}{\listof{table2}{List of tables}}
