Alex--

Hold on--I should have tested further! The reason that ".Item(1)" works is that I was getting *all* of the guides on the page. There was only 1.<g>

The "Item("name")" reference works fine for page items, but not for guides. So, to find a guide, you'll have to iterate:



For myCounter = 1 to myPage.Guides.Count 
If myPage.Guides.Item(myCounter).Label = "myGuide" then 
myPage.Guides.Item(myCounter).Delete 
Exit For 
End If 
Next 




Thanks,

Ole
