I believe you could also copy-and-paste a tagged paragraph from your
source
file to your target file. Then in the target file (which doesn't yet
have
that para tag defined), you'll notice an asterisk next to the para tag
name
in the status are at the bottom of the screen (where the flow and para
tags
are). Simply use ctrl-m to get to the para designer dialog box, and
then
add that style.

Not an automated way, so not particularly practical for adding a style
to a
lot of files, but a nice shortcut.
