I'm interpreting your needs incorrectly ... Frontpage is OK (I've used it to see how an html code works - but I think there is a problem with some hosts not liking Frontpage extensions, so you could have a problem there) .... I suggest you try this link http://htmlgoodies.earthweb.com/ .... in the menu on the left of their website you will find alot of help on html tables ... hope this is what you are looking for

Actually vash what you need to remember is that when creating/slicing your image design in Photoshop, you must slice out an area where your text will go later. This will usually just be an empty looking space with no specific image in it, just a solid colour.
Then when you open the html file in Dreamweaver, you need to DELETE the image that's in your text area space. That way, just an empty table cell will be left, and you can add your text at that point.
And you need to do this for every text area you have in your design.
Ian is right though... use DW, not FP -- for your own piece of mind.
PS: if this isn't making any sense to you still, then i'd suggest some studying of basic html is in order. It's easy to learn, and won't take long to figure out.

So is everything ok now then?
You can't really do much in Web design these days without a good table layout. Albeit CSS is on the rise, it's not a good thing yet to be designing full-on with ONLY CSS. I've seen some sites do this and they're just begging for trouble. [stuned]
Dreamweaver should not mess up your page's design/layout Vash. It doesn't have that kind of control. It may LOOK like it's messed up, with spacing and alignment and stuff... but that's just how DW renders stuff in its work mode. Preview the page in a browser (F12) to see for sure what's going on.
