Sean--
While the ParaStyle object itself is read-only (which means that ParaStyles are either manipulated with various methods and are edited as individual ParaStyle objects), the properties of each ParaStyle object are (usually) read/write.
Next, ChangePreferences is a member of the Application object--it's not on the ParaStyle. In addition, you're working on an application Default ParaStyle (myID.ParaStyles.Item("UniqueKey"))--you probably want myDoc.ParaStyles.Item("UniqueKey"). I think what you want is something like this:
Set myDoc.ParaStyles.Item("UniqueKey").FillColor = myDoc.Swatches.Item("Paper")
Thanks,
Ole
