The change at the Appendix file level was ignored; your Book file must 
have contained instructions for each file to continue from previous file 
in book.

This was the right place but not quite the right action -- FM did 
exactly what you told it to, which was not what you wanted.

In the Book window:
Select your TOC and give it Roman numerals, start at i.
Select your Appendix and give it Arabic numerals and start at 1.
Then update the book.  Ignore any warnings about settings not matching.

When you get around to adding the Chapter(s), select the first chapter 
(in the book window) and set it to Arabic numerals, start at 1. Select 
the remaining chapters & appendices (by shift-clicking) and set them to 
Arabic, continue from previous.  Then update.

HTH,
