I don't know if CS2 gives you the option but in CS3 you can Open As, elect the JPEG and open it as a camera raw which then gives you the ability to use the ACR to do any manipulation.

Although it doesn't allow a specific Kelvin selection :(

Hi Wendell,

Depending on the image, sometimes using curves on 'b' channel (LAB mode) gives the desired result. "B" channel is the blue/yellow channel and sometimes I have used it as alternative to WB correction. Convert your image to LAB mode and go to 'curves' then play with the b channel.

Hope it works out.
