Alex--

Interesting. I would have thought that the right way to refer to the guide with the label would be:



Set myGuide = myPage.Guides.Item("myGuide") 




But that doesn't work. When you look at the Locals window while debugging, however, you'll see that your version returns a collection (which would be useful if more than one guide bore the same label). In this case, changing the reference to:



Set myGuide = myPage.Guides("myGuide").Item(1) 
myGuide.Delete 




Actually works. I'm not sure why guides are different from other page items in this way--have to look into it.

Thanks,

Ole
