erase one color

I am using photo shop 7. is there a way to erase only one color. I have a seal that has already been drawn with a background and i want to put the seal on a website with transparent background.
Thanks

I found it never mind. Right clicking on tools helps Incase anyone wants to know, i changed the background color of my backround to black in paint brush and then in photoshop i used the magic erase tool and clicked on the black and it went away. then i deleted the background layer and its all good now.
thanks for letting me take up space.

If you changed the background to black with the paintbrush, why didn't you just use the eraser tool directly?
Hasn't v7 got the 'Extract' filter? I think so, you could have used that(as a start).
Or a 3rd party filter you could use is Corel Knockout, or Mask pro (knockout is better in my opinion).

Moe: It could have been a real ugly situation, but luckily I managed to shoot him in the spine.
