You can create the background as a filled rectangle covering the entire page
and anchored to a paragraph on the page (with Behind Text wrapping), or you
can anchor the AutoShape to the header, with the proviso that you can have
only three different headers per section (see
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/HeaderFooter.htm). Note that it the
document is to be printed, it is quite unlikely that your color background
will print clear to the edge; most printers have a finite unprintable area
all the way around.

Hi, I'm writing a document and want the pages to have different colour
backgrounds. Does anyone know how I can get different colour backgrounds
of
separate pages? Thanks.
