Curious. I regularly use and have an action for this procedure. After creating the edge mask in the "filename copy" window, focus is returned to the image file window and I'll do load selection. In the Load Selection dialog box I select for Source Document: "filename copy." Once selected, the channel selection shows "Gray" and the operation New Selection radio button is set. Clicking OK loads the selection. A couple of possibilities if this is not working for you. To load a selection from another source document I think the pixel dimensions must be identical; so if for any reason these were changed in your copy - edge selection file that could be why the copy file is not offered as a source document choice. Also, at this point I'm in 8-bit mode; this process may not work in 16-bit mode.
