Creating a shape outline without stroke

[evernski]

I'm creating navigational elements in photoshop and I want to be able to adjust the outline by itself, as well as there are some elements that are only an outline with no fill. How do I create shape outlines without the fill?

Adobe Photoshop CS4, PC.

they changed this a few times, on one version there was a stroke style option to do it.

the earlier versions there was a long winded way of

1. Draw your rounded rect etc with the tool

2. Ctrl-select that layer to select the shape

3. Create a new layer

4. Edit -> Stroke... to create the outline

5. Delete the original shape

another was was Select->Modify->Border

don't forget there is a stroke from the drop down menus not just in effects, this is what you need when you want a stroke on a stroke on a stroke etc

I see the option available there, however it is shaded out when I select the shape I wish to apply changes to. how can I solve this problem?
