The latter. Your autonumber format for appendices should use the the
chapnum variable, just like chapters: Appendix <$chapnum>:\sn
Then, for the first appendix only, you go to Format>Document>Numbering,
and on the Chapter tab, click the first radio button, Chapter #, and set
Format to ALPHABETIC (N). For subsequent appendices, the Chapter
numbering remains set to Continue Numbering From Previous File in Book,
just like chapters after the first.
Your table headings use the chapnum variable for the chapter/appendix
number, so your appendix numbering has to be based on that variable.
HTH!
