What's the easiest way to selectively round 1 only corner on a rectangular text frame within InDesign? It appears that the Rounded Corners option is applied to all corners.
 
Draw the box, or whatever, and round the corners to what you want. Go to Tools pallette and click on Pen toll to get options and select Add Anchor point. This will be used on the corners that you do NOT want rounded.

Go back to your object with thh rounded corners. At this point it's makes things easier if you add a colored fill and go to preview mode - just to make things stand out more. It also helps to blow up your view.

Pick a corner that you so not want rounded. Click the Add Anchor on the top line of the bounding box. Now do the same thing on the side line. The rounding will go away. Repeat with other corners you don't want rounded.
