Any Adobe Indesign experts?

I am sure this is so obvious but how do I link two text boxes so that the text will automatically flow from one text box to another without cutting and pasting by hand?

There could be another way, but i always just put all the text in one box, make it the size i want/need, then you click the little box on the lower right corner of the text box and you get an icon that looks like a bunch of lines. Draw the second text box with this and the text should flow in from the first box.

ETA: Its a box with a plus in the middle (lower right corner) and you need to use the arrow tool to click on it!
