First line of paragraph not indented but all paragraphs that follow are indented

I am hoping this can get done through a paragraph style.

I want to set up a style so that the first paragraph is not indented, but every paragraph that follows it will have the first line indented.
Is this even possible to set up in a paragraph style?
If so can someone point me in the right direction.

It requires two styles. You can set the non-indented style to have the insented style as "next style" and it will change automatically as you type.

    Thank you. This was so easy to do.

    I got it working but I am not sure if I like it yet.

    I see some pro's and con's with it.
