No Problem! It's not something I've used before, only did it because of this thread. Obviously there's nothing to stop you adding other layers (such as Levels) to that 'Actions' file, and then copying all three layers over when you need to. There are a lot of possibilities for this sort of thing, if it's a type of processing you do regularly.

Daniel,
it is not really the processing I do all the time, but on occasion. It is always nice to have another piece to your toolbox to use when the need arises.
Thanks again,

It would seem that way. I have Elements 4 and that definitely doesn't!
If you don't want to spend out on a new version of Elements just yet, how about this free work-around.
Download this PSD file, and save to your desktop. Now, every time you want to do this B&W conversion, just double-click the 'Actions.psd' file and it will open up in Elements. Then open the image you want to work on, view the two images at the same time using Window>Images>Tile from the menu bar.
Then just select the two adjustment layers from the 'Actions' image and drag them onto the image you want to play with, and then adjust them as necessary.
Does that make sense?
