This was my mind headache when it did come to Photoshop 4.0. And the secret
is that Photoshop creates a new layer if you put some text there. To move
it or modify it, just be sure your working with that layer, and use the
tools meant for that, like the "Move tool". You can also put some text in
the document as only floating selection, mainly to modify the selection
itself with things like "Border" or "Grow".

Hope this helps
