General ⇒ Continue Arabic Numbering in Appendix

[piersmaddox]

Hi.

I need to renumber appendices to arabic and have equations continue main body numbering. I am in article class. What is the best way to do this?

Gratefully in advance.

How about omitting the \appendix command?

If you just want the "appendix" to start numbering again from one, use \setcounter{section}{0} and omit the \appendix command.

You can also define your equations to have numbers like (1.2) instead of just (2) by issuing \numberwithin{equation}{section} (you'll need the amsmath package, I think).
