question about flood plain crossing property parcels

Question

I have a polygon representing a flood plain, and also have property parcels shown. How can I show only those parcels that are touching/crossing the flood plain? I'd like to see only them, and then export out to a list. Can anybody help me with some steps? Thanks

I did a select by location and ised "intersect the source layer feature". This gave me the image below (select purple where intersect blue).

Now I can right click the purple feature in the table of contents and select data -- export data. The dialog should already have export : set to selected. Then you are done. Open the .dbf file in excel and you have a list.

update on this....I tried to do a select by location. I thought it worked, but it only selected parcels that crossed the boundary line of the flood plain line.  It skipped those smaller parcels that were enclosed by the flood plain line that did not touch the boundary line.
