I wanted it to to select the next paragraph after the one that was
selected. Finally was able to get that paragraph's index by selecting
it, then selecting from there to the beginning of the story, then
getting the count of paragraphs within that text. It seems pretty lame
for "NextParagraph" to work only in reference to a specified paragraph,
since you could just as easily say
Idapp.Select(myStory.Paragraphs.Item(n+1)) and use fewer keystrokes. Oh
well...

WHICH paragraph ?

"myStory.Paragrapgs" is collection of all paragraphs in "myStory".

It should be:

IDapp.Select( myStory.Paragraphs.Item(aaa).NextItem,
InDesign.idSelectionOptions.idAddTo )
