Subject: Applying CSS on Client Based Application
Do you mean to apply it to an application displayed using the Lotus Notes Client?
CSS only applies to HTML / Web based “code/markup,” therefore I am confused by the question.

No, you can use CSS in Notes proper as well, provided that the CSS file is stored as a Style Sheet Resource and is referenced on the form or page using Create->Resource->Insert Resource. Mind you, it is more difficult to achieve some results since you can only differentiate elements that Notes recognises (fields, layers, etc., in addition to an overall BODY element style). If Notes had headings and so forth rather than appearance-based rich text, life would be a lot easier.

I would think just about anything you can do in CSS you could do in the notes client, but it will take a bit of work and planning. Like any web page, you may need to put things in tables, layout regions, etc.
Maybe you could do a screen print of something you want to change and explain / show what you’d like to change it to. Others maybe able to explain how to do that.
I assume it’s more complex than wanting to change the font size and colour.
