Appendix problem

Post by carol »

Hi,
To create appendices (Appendix A and Appendix B), I used the commands listed below. My problem is that the appendix A and the appendix B appear as "A" and "B" in the table of contents instead of "Appendix A" and "Appendix B". In the related appendix chapters however, the headers appear correctly.

How to precede the appendixname (A and B) by the word "Appendix" in the table of contents?


\usepackage[toc]{appendix}
\appendix
\addappheadtotoc
\input{AppendixA}
\input{AppendixB}

Here is how Appendices get displayed in the table of contents:

A
A.1 main A heading . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 174
A.1.1 section heading1 . . . . . . . . . . . . 174
A.1.2 section heading2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . 176
B
B.1 main B heading . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 178

Thanks

Carol

Try \usepackage[titletoc]{appendix} and then
\begin{appendices}...\end{appendices}
instead of \appendix.

(I think that's what you want, right?)
