MS-Word: Creating a "second" Heading 1 using letters and have captions using that letter as the chapter number

Hi,

I'm driving myself crazy with this one.  I'm writing a formatted document in word and I'm trying to get the Appendix going.  I have an extensive list of custom styles in this one.

Heading 1 = 1   TITLE
Heading 2 = 1.1 TITLE
Heading 3 = 1.1.1 TITLE
etc,  you get the idea

When I add a caption I getting it to show the chapitre number:

Figure 1-1: Description

Now, I created a "Style" using Heading 1 as the template and call it "Heading 1 Appendix" and used the following numbering format:
APPENDIX A
APPENDIX B
etc.

Appendix = APPENDIX A   TITLE

This works fine until I add a caption in that chapter.  The caption takes the number of the previous chapitre.

1   TITLE  
   text text text

APPENDIX A   TITLE
   text text text

   Figure 1-1: Text


I wan't it to show:

  Figure A-1: Text

Any idea?

I included an attachement as an example.
