Question converting a preset shape to path

I am trying to convert my preset shape to a path, but I just can't figure out how to make that option available. Whatever I do, the convert to path command is greyed out. But according to PSP help it should be possible.
Can anyone help me out? 'Cause I'm about to go CRAZY!

If you're using a preset shape in vector mode, it should automatically be a path. You just have to hover the text tool over the shape so that there is a little curved line below the "A". Then your text should follow the shape of your shape. Does that make sense? Hope that helps!

Thanks! I was trying to use the vector tube script from the custom dotted brush tutorial. It said I had to convert to a path, but couldn't click on it.
After a while I just tried to run the script and it worked. Glad to know it wasn't because of something I didn't know I did, but that it was supposed to do that!

LOL all vectors aren't created equal! I don't know why some are already converted to a path and others are not.
But if the choice is grayed out it means that the vector is already a path..clear as mud!
