I used the horizontal marquee tool, made a selection on my page and then filled it blue using the paint bucket.

I’ve now decided that the size of the area that I filled in with the blue color is to large and I wold like to resize the height of the selection.

I’m not sure how to do this or if you can. Would someone know if this is possible or do I have to delete this layer and recreate it with the marquee.

click on the layer with the selection, go to edit/free transform ,now you can change the selection ,enter for finish..
if it for any reason not works go back in your history palette , go back just before the selection and select again!
all work done after the selection will be erased and need to be done again.!!!
