PSP9 question

Hi there!

I have a picture... with a defined outline, on a background, which i want to just remove from the background and save as an image on its own.

Usually on an art package i can just click a tool and the outline of what i want to cut will snap to the image and i can then remove it, but can i heck as like find that tool on paint shop pro 9. I can get an outline of the image, but not the image itself! Either im being dense (which is just a thought which i'll throw up in the air hehehe) or such a simple and much needed tool is missing! I had in on my bbc b fer cryin out loud so its gotta be on here! lol

The image has a definate outline, so is a prime candidate for easy application of this tool... but out of sheer frustration i've ended up manually copying the required matching background by hand grrrr. Hopefully one of you guys (or gals) can throw some light on this as next time i may not be able to just do it by hand!

Ta muchly!
