Did you know that you can dynamically change the background color of a document? There is a new feature, used primarily in domino development, called $PaperColor. This is a field that the developer creates in a form and typically hides. The field accepts a number, from 1 to 238, and displays the associated color. $PaperColor works well for Notes and Browser (Domino).
The value of the $PaperColor field, from 1-238, will produce one of the colors listed below. The colors below are listed in order, from 1 to 238. So if the value of $PaperColor was 3 then the background of your document would be red.
