I have been using Dreamweaver for years. With that being said, I like ASP.Net 
and prefer to use it over other platforms. 

 I am terribly disappointed. I would be thrilled if I could simply hand code 
the ASP.Net stuff in a template. BUT when I have to put code upstairs above the 
body on a template based page DW nukes it on save. Otherwise throws a Locked 
Region error.

 I could just spit nails. Is it too much to ask for a editable script zone. I 
mean it seems so simple...

 I have even attempted to hand code editable regions high on the page directly 
on the template itself, however, NO DICE. Dreamweaver nukes the entire region, 
tags and all.

 I am sadly coming to the conclusion that I will have to leave Dreamweaver 
behind. It's kinda like abandoning an old friend to certain doom. I first felt 
the wind shift when Adobe aquired Macromedia... 

 It is a shame. Dreamweaver was such an awesome product. However, if it 
can't/won't support something as fundamental as ASP.Net, it is time to find a 
new tool.

 I just don't have time to bang around two seperate applications. 

 Bummer.
