In the book window, select the first appendix, right-click, and select Numbering. On the Chapter tab of the Numbering properties dialog, verify that Chapter # is selected and set to 1 and that Format is set to ALPHABETIC (N). Click Cancel. Now select the remaining appendices, right-click, and select numbering. On the Chapter tab of the Numbering properties dialog, select Continue Numbering From Previous File in Book. Click Set. 

HTH!
