I am working on a file and it contains lots of layers many times I have to ‘Guide’ the layers. some times I have to ‘Guide’ around 40-50 layers to hide the animation/graphics.  
\*\*  
Process I am following\*\*

1. Select the layer
2. Right click on the layer
3. Select guide
4. And the layer is guided.

Its a too long process and not good for large number of layers. Can any one suggest any other way of doing it.
