problem - photoshop CS4 - colour only in grayscale

When I try to select a new colour (either from swatches or colour picker) it just appears in a grayscale tone - so a yellow appears as a light gray and a navy blue as a dark gray for example. Any ideas how to fix this?

Take a look at your image mode.  I'll bet you have a grayscale document.

From the menus, to make it a color document, choose Image - Mode - RGB Color.
