hmmm, I have never tired that before you could try:
dup the layer
then  fliping the text.
Then use eraser tool to remove the part you want.

EDIT:
here is what I came up with!

I make it this way:

1. dub layer
2. flip text
3. add layer mask
3. (work in mask) use gardient tool with black and white color
4. change text transperancy

and final resul is this:


But when add stroke everything goes wrong....

Before adding the mask add the stroke and rasterize the layer (layer-rasterize-type). Doing this you will transform the type to an image, with the border included.
Hope this helps.

right click on the layer (in the layer panel)

[joseloco]

If by dub you're meaning duplicate (I'm not sure ) then Crtl-J should do the trick. Or right click on the layer, as Houck already (said) wrote.

Oh, I forgot to add me and Zoidy use Paintshop Pro.
and yes, I mean duplicate.
