Hoogleman, the guy wanted the text to "flow", not just cut out. That's the thing...

oh I thought he wanted it like your 2nd post on page 1 well if he just wants it to flow around just use the square marquee tool mark out a square right click it and select create working path duplicate the path and reduce it by xx amount and repeat until you have several paths merge the paths together click the paths channel you will see working path right click it and say stroke path using text tool so when you type it will follow the path

That's why I answered the post. Despite the evident harsh way of the topicaster:cheesygrin:
It's a real problem in PS. The problem is to fill the hollow shape with text. Not to follow the path.
If look close you'll see that text breaks itself clean on selection borders.
My 2nd post was just a clue how to do it. Just make compound path a simple one by cutting. And then overlap the corners.
