Changing background colors for each page in a 2003 document
"OREALLY" <oreally[ at ]comcast.net> 12/24/2008 4:12:42 AM
I can change the backgorund color for the whole document......How about
changing the colors for individual pages within the document?

Thanks,


Oreally

Use a full page text box with colour fill set behind text. Do note that if
you intend to print this document, most printers cannot print to the edge of
the paper and the cost of printing it will be frightening. Use coloured
paper instead.

As was pointed out previously, the cost of this is prohibitive and the
idea of using colored paper is a great work-around. However, if you
still feed the need to do this the colored box behind the text is
fairly simple and you could easily create a macro to accommodate a
long document.
