making a tricky selection - PSP 4.12

I made some text with a gold glow and a black background because it wouldn't work with white. I now want to select the text so I can cut it out of the page. I've tried the magic wand and other stuff without success. Does anyone know where I can find some advanced selection techniques ??

Try using this technique. It's a how-to for my Blade Pro outer bevel presets, but should work here as well.

Skip down to the part that talks about clicking in the background and go from there.

Thanks guys. I got it after awhile with the magic wand. I thought I had tried it thoroughly but did it again after searching the web and it worked. Now I have the text on a black ellipse and am plating aroung with getting the ellipse edges nice and sharp.

JP Stones, is it possible to embed images in a post or do I need a web page ?

Bimjo, I came across "Robins Paint Shop Pro" page the other day, where "BladePro was mentioned. It was pretty cool. I'm going to check out your link now.
