It seems like putting them in a non-printing layer is simpler. I am using Visio 2003. It's on the main menu Format - Style or right-click menu Format - Style but sorry, can't seem to make this work. Guide lines might not print but setting a line to the Guide style still does print. -- Regards, Paul Herber, Sandrila Ltd.

If you look at the shapesheet of a guideline, that cell is set to true. Remember, this is a secret. If Chris finds out, Visio Guy will do a blog about it. ;-) John... Visio MVP
