Dreamweaver's ASP.NET was okay in the first installment, I believe that was
back in Dreamweaver MX (6),
since then the servermodel hasn't been developed any further, and in the
next version it will be removed completely.

Use Visual Studio if you're serious about developing in ASP.NET, I've
developed ASP.NET Sites using Dreamweaver for the Layout/Design and the
opensource .NET IDE SharpDevelop for coding in C#, and had to develop a Code
Behind generation technique ( http://www.xs4all.nl/~whizzrd/code/) to create
the stub C# codebehind classes for the Pages and UserControls built in
Dreamweaver, but because of the vertical nature of the process, making
changes to the html after the code behind is generated is tedious.
