Abambo, your method of using the multiply blending method worked perfectly as well. I gave MichaelBParis' answer as the correct answer simply because I got his method to work first. Thank you very much for your ingenious correct answer.

McihaelBParis, your suggestion to do a New Fill Layer in Darker Color mode using my chosen background color worked perfectly! It was brilliant. I never could have come up with that on my own. Thank you so so so much for your knowledge. Your other suggestion to use the Magic Wand also worked, but not quite as well because there was a slight grey/off-white surrounding the letters in my image, and so those areas did not get the color. However, because of your explanation, I knew exactly why those areas did not receive the color.

I'm not able to post an image right now, but the text is fairly dense with over 200 words.

[Moderator moved from Photoshop for Beginners to Photoshop Elements.] I have an image which is simply black text on white background. I want to change the white background to a light blue. For the life of me I cannot figure out how to do this. I tried Replace Color, but remarkably, having read other posts, that feature doesn't seem to work when the color is white. I am using Photoshop Elements 2018.
