Macro to change the Background color in 2007

[Angyl]

I've changed the Normal.dotm template in Word 2007 to include a dark blue
background but apparently the Normal.dotm doesn't store the background color
(all my new documents are still white).

So how would I go about making an AutoNew macro that will change the color
for me?

Something like this:

Sub AutoNew()
With ActiveDocument.Background.Fill
.ForeColor.ObjectThemeColor = wdThemeColorText2
.ForeColor.TintAndShade = -0.25
.Visible = msoTrue
.Solid
End With
End Sub
