The guides are ppt-specific, that's correct. Each presentation can have its
own set of guides. But as far as I know, the guide settings are not exposed to
VBA, so there may not be any way of accessing them directly.

On the other hand, if you look at Tools, Macro, Script Editor and view the
pres.xml file, you'll see the guides stored there. And you can one way or
another manipulate the html programmatically, so that might be workable.
