It looks from your graphic that you have more than just the top rectangle selected. You can tell what is selected by going into 'Quick Mask' mode

It should look like this, where the red area is unselected

A 100px stroke is going to fill your rectangle as it is only around 150px wide. Try doing it this way-make the location of the stroke 'inside' the selection at 10px

At 10px it will not overflow outside the selection

At 20 pixels

At 30pixels

At 40pixels the rectangle will nearly be filled

and if you go to a stroke of 100px it will be filled

If you have 'centre' selected in the stroke dialog it will overflow outside the rectangle, but as only the top rectangle is selected it will not effect the other rectangle.

I don't have Photoshop 7 but the 'stroke' command goes back a long way and I imagine it was in PS7. Remember though your interface is different from modern versions but as a guide this should work.

1) Begin with your original

2) Click inside the square with the Magic wand tool-w on the keyboard

3) Under the Edit menu locate 'Stroke' Your menu will look different to mine

4) In the dialog set the width to the thickness you want in this case 10px. Again your dialog will look different to mine

5) The stroke will be applied and the stroke thickness increases. Press control or command-D to deselect.
