Default creating a new drawing guide when none exist

Hi

So I deleted all the vertical drawing guides by mistake and now need to add some back.

I know I can create a new one by holing Ctrl whilst dragging an existing one, but I have non existing!
I can't drag a horizontal guide to be a vertical guide

Does anyone have any ideas?

I'm using PowerPoint 2010

Thanks


Mike

ALT + f9 should toggle the guides on / off

Thanks John - I can do this, what I can't do is create a new one when none exist.

AFAIK there's no way to delete the last vertical guide are you sure it is not just at one edge of the slide?

Brilliant!
I must get some new glasses! I reopened the PP today and a vertical one was there at very left of the slide.
So either I couldn't see the wood for the trees, or some glitch had caused them all to disappear yesterday.

Thanks John
