Applying 3 Paragraph Styles automatically?

[Joe Seven]

In my document, I have 3 lines of text. Each line is using a different paragraph style: (Line 1, Line 2, Line 3). I am wondering if it's possible to copy 3 unformatted lines of text (from a Word doc) and paste them into my document, and have InDesign apply to 3 paragraph styles automatically.

I vaguely recall a feature that allowed us link together different paragraph styles (e.g. Line 1 = paragraph style A; Line 2 = paragraph style B, etc) but can't find it anymore.

Sample image of the text attached.

Thanks!

I vaguely recall a feature

That would be Next Style:

Put your cursor anywhere in the first paragraph, and run this simple javascript (sure, check your style names first. I used Line 1, Line 2, Line 3). If your text frame begins with those 3 paras, it's enough to just select that text frame, and run the script.

mySel=app.selection[0];
p = mySel.paragraphs[0]; p.appliedParagraphStyle="Line 1";
p = p.insertionPoints[-1].paragraphs[0]; p.appliedParagraphStyle="Line 2";
p = p.insertionPoints[-1].paragraphs[0]; p.appliedParagraphStyle="Line 3";
