there is an entry in TOOLBAR.DAT for "Show zenith" (with line number 2450).
You have to remove the "#" in front of this line. But the desired "1.bmp" isn't
available in the guide directory. So either create your own 32x32 pixel bmp file
saving as "1.bmp" or change the bmp file name in line 2450 to an existing file
name or copy an existing bmp file and rename it to "1.bmp".

Perhaps you have to increase the very fist number in TOLLBAR.DAT. This
number describes the maximum allowed entries, when you click on "Settings"
"Toolbar" in Guide.

Now by clicking on this new icon in your toolbar, Guide will center the zenith in
your map. Then you have to slew your telescope to there.

Hope this helps and clear skies
Bernd
