Not just possible but nice and easy.

Drag the right hand edge of the region while holding down the option key. You'll be prompted as to whether you want to time stretch. Say OK and it's done.

Thanks alot! Thank god there is a logic forum.The reference or manual is only for reading completely. When you want to search something lots of times you can't find it........Do you know if it's possible to save a loop-selection of a region in an audiotrack in the arrange-window as a sepparate audio-file. Someone suggested to export the track as audio but that did exactly what is says exporting the whole track.It didn't ,like with bouncing, only saved the loop-selection of the region.
Thanks again. Ron.

No absolutely simple way. Here's how I'd do it (assuming you have Output 1-2 in your arrange window):

Select the Output 1-2 track
Select region (that selects any loop extension of that region as well)
Region > Set Locators by Region
Solo the track
Click on Bnce (the bounce button on Output 1-2)

You have to do it in that order so that Output 1-2 receives the start/end position correctly. It's a bit of a fiddle - perhaps someone can improve my method???

Region > Bounce Regions would be a v nice feature...
