String Description
theme The name of the folder that contains the data for the requested theme. (The default location for theme data folders is C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Themes.) You must use the folder name for the theme rather than the display name that appears in the Theme dialog box (Theme command, Format menu).
nnn A three-digit string that indicates which theme formatting options to activate (1 to activate, 0 to deactivate). The digits correspond to the Vivid Colors, Active Graphics, and Background Image check boxes in the Theme dialog box (Theme command, Format menu). If this string is omitted, the default value for nnn is "011" (Active Graphics and Background Image are activated).

Example

This example applies the Artsy theme to the active document and activates the Vivid Colors option.
