Using Paint and how to edit the Text box.

Paint is a very simple program and does not support re-selecting a text box to edit the contents.

How do I select a text box to edit in Paint - Windows 7 Home Premium? Once I leave the text box I can't re-select it again to edit the text or grab it to move it ......I must be missing something very simple???  Is there a program manual somewhere?  Yes, the zoom is 100% and I am the Administrator.  Thanks for any help!!

This is the Vista Forum, perhaps you should be in the Windows 7 Forum.

Do you have a big "A" to the left of the image area in the normal Toolbox?  If you click on the "A" can you draw a box on the image and write text into it? Once you get an area to write text into, see if the Text Toolbar is no longer dimmed.
