Default How do you change the dimension of a rectangle?

Hi all,
I was wondering if there's a way to change the dimensions of a rectangle once you create one using the rectangle tool in Photoshop. The only thing I can find is the control that let's you change the dimension as a % value. I want something that let's me change the pixel height and width. This is something that's easy to do in Fireworks. But I can't find the control in Photoshop and don't even know if it's supported (don't know why it wouldn't be!).

Thanks for any help!

RIck

Maybe better to do things like this in illustrator, it gives you better control over objects

That would sort of suck though, because I still have to use Photoshop (I'm comping a website).

So if I use Illustrator though what do I do, just make the rectangle and then copy and paste it into the Photoshop document? And then whenever I want to change the dimension I have to go back to Illustrator and repeat the process?

That sounds really sucky. Adobe sucks
