I'm a little confused as to the best way to do an old PSP5 sequence.

In PSP5 you would enter text, then apply your various text effects
immediately while the text was still selected.

Now, if the text is loaded as a vector, what is the correct sequence to
end up with the text as raster and selected?

With the Vector Text layer active, go to Layers | Convert to Raster
The text is now in raster format, now use the Selection Tool to select the
text, then click once on the text to get a selection that "hugs" the text.

Or if you don't need it in vector format, just select the Floating option in
the Text tool dialog box, that way you get a select raster text.
