I saw a tut on this for PS somewhere, but I find its much easier to do it in Illustrator. Just create a circle and use the "text to path" text tool!

AI is best, but you can do this in PSCS.

Draw a circle with the shape tool (NOT the marquee tool).
Select Text Tool and move over edge of circle, when the Text Tool cursor changes to show a diagonal line, you can type along the circular path.
Drag the Text Tool into the circle, and the cursor will change again (to look like parentheses around the cursor) now you can type within the circle.

F1

Text on a path.

RTM and read the help files, honestly I am not just being mean, they really do give most of the answers, no-one minds helping those that have tried to help themselves.

Can you cite where the PS Help File describes entering type into a shape area? (not along a path).
Hmmm…
