after making text follow a pentool path, how can i make the path invisible?

i used a pen tool to create a path for the text to follow. it is a spiral of rectangles. it worked fine but the path is still visible even after i moved on to the next part of the project.
how can i make the path invisible?

thx.

Can you move it to it's own layer and then turn off the layer?

[MacDoxy]

is it possible to do that? isn't the text attached?

Go to the paths tab and turn off the path so it is not hi-lighted.

[MacDoxy]

seems i can't separate it

Check out this tutorial, specifically the section titled Hiding The Path.

Just go to the Paths palette and click outside of the path (un-highlight it).
