creating borders for consecutive paragraphs

[j]

I'm trying to create a number of consecutive paragraphs, each with its
own border.

I've set up a new paragraph style with the border (border bottom 3pt).
If I type three paragraphs and apply the style to each, only the last
paragraph gets the bottom border.

How can I get the border to apply to each paragraph?

Yeah, that's just a little tricky The 'secret' is that you can't get the
option to have individual paragraph borders applied unless you have multiple
paragraphs selected when you define/modify the style.

Select at least 2 paras the style is applied to then go into the Format>
Borders & Shading dialog. The preview will display multiple paras. Apply the
border between the two preview paras, OK out, then use the Update to Match
Selection option to update the Style.

Alternatively, select at least 2 formatted paras, then go into the Modify
Style dialog & redefine the style as above.
