Programmatically change "Don't add space between paragraphs of the same style"

Question

I'm trying to programmatically change "Don't add space between paragraphs of the same style." To approach the problem, I recorded a macro during which I opened the Paragraph dialog box (Page Layout > Paragraph), checked the checkbox (don't add space) and a macro during which I unchecked the checkbox (add space). Neither affects "Don't add space between paragraphs of the same style" . . . and they have identical code:

Sub AddSpaceBetweenParagraphsOfSameStyle()
'
' AddSpaceBetweenParagraphsOfSameStyle Macro
' Add space between paragraphs of the same style.
'
    With Selection.ParagraphFormat
        .LeftIndent = InchesToPoints(0.5)
        .RightIndent = InchesToPoints(0)
        .SpaceBefore = 12
        .SpaceBeforeAuto = False
        .SpaceAfter = 12
        .SpaceAfterAuto = False
        .LineSpacingRule = wdLineSpaceMultiple
        .LineSpacing = LinesToPoints(1)
        .Alignment = wdAlignParagraphLeft
        .WidowControl = True
        .KeepWithNext = False
        .KeepTogether = False
        .PageBreakBefore = False
        .NoLineNumber = False
        .Hyphenation = True
        .FirstLineIndent = InchesToPoints(-0.25)
        .OutlineLevel = wdOutlineLevelBodyText
        .CharacterUnitLeftIndent = 0
        .CharacterUnitRightIndent = 0
        .CharacterUnitFirstLineIndent = 0
        .LineUnitBefore = 0
        .LineUnitAfter = 0
        .MirrorIndents = False
        .TextboxTightWrap = wdTightNone
    End With
End Sub

Sub RemoveSpaceBetweenParagraphsOfSameStyle()
'
' RemoveSpaceBetweenParagraphsOfSameStyle Macro
' Remove space between paragraphs of the same style.
'
    With Selection.ParagraphFormat
        .LeftIndent = InchesToPoints(0.5)
        .RightIndent = InchesToPoints(0)
        .SpaceBefore = 12
        .SpaceBeforeAuto = False
        .SpaceAfter = 12
        .SpaceAfterAuto = False
        .LineSpacingRule = wdLineSpaceMultiple
        .LineSpacing = LinesToPoints(1)
        .Alignment = wdAlignParagraphLeft
        .WidowControl = True
        .KeepWithNext = False
        .KeepTogether = False
        .PageBreakBefore = False
        .NoLineNumber = False
        .Hyphenation = True
        .FirstLineIndent = InchesToPoints(-0.25)
        .OutlineLevel = wdOutlineLevelBodyText
        .CharacterUnitLeftIndent = 0
        .CharacterUnitRightIndent = 0
        .CharacterUnitFirstLineIndent = 0
        .LineUnitBefore = 0
        .LineUnitAfter = 0
        .MirrorIndents = False
        .TextboxTightWrap = wdTightNone
    End With
End Sub

The code produced by the macro recorder is long, so I reduced it to a minimal version that I've verified also fails to affect "Don't add space between paragraphs of the same style":

Sub AddSpaceBetweenParagraphsOfSameStyle()
'
' AddSpaceBetweenParagraphsOfSameStyle Macro
' Add space between paragraphs of the same style.
'
End Sub

Sub RemoveSpaceBetweenParagraphsOfSameStyle()
'
' RemoveSpaceBetweenParagraphsOfSameStyle Macro
' Remove space between paragraphs of the same style.
'
End Sub

I looked at the documentation for ParagraphFormat and searched for a relevant property but found nothing that works. How can I programmatically change "Don't add space between paragraphs of the same style"?

Answer 1

This property is connected with Style, not with Paragraph (which suggests window title where you set this property). This is code which you look for:

ActiveDocument.Styles("Normal").NoSpaceBetweenParagraphsOfSameStyle = False
ActiveDocument.Styles("Normal").NoSpaceBetweenParagraphsOfSameStyle = True
