There are two ways you can use software like Dreamweaver.

The wrong way is to simply learn the software and start "designing" with it, without thoroughly understanding what's taking place at the code level. The danger in this is that you don't know what the software is doing wrong in the background, and often times what it's doing is giving you servicable, but ultimately second-class (X)HTML. Any professional who understands how the Web works will be able to point out the flaws and will know exactly why the flaws matter to some portion of your Web audience.

The proper way to learn Dreamweaver is not to learn it at all, or to learn it long after you've learned markup directly, as well as strategies for properly exporting and using imagery on a Web canvas. Without learning these, you end up using your graphic design software incorrectly as well, exporting big chunks of imagery instead of looking for strategies to build elasticity into your site and reduce the amount of visual data that needs to be downloaded.

Start with something like http://www.w3schools.com/, or a book I think is very well written is Head First (http://headfirstlabs.com/books/hfhtml/) CSS/HTML.
