Dreamweaver CS6 v12?

Just downloaded DW CS6 v12 on my new iMac - but can't figure out how to wrap text around a photo? The most advice I got via google searches point to 'property' links to 'floats' that aren't shown. Can someone help with SIMPLE advice? I'm new at this. TY

    Thanks so much Osgood, but sadly I'm still confused. I promise won't take advantage, but here's my current code. How do you attached the code you provided?

    The code you posted doesn't mean anything to me as a coder.

    A properly formed image tag would look like below:

    <img src="yourImageName.jpg" alt="Short image description">

    To add a css class to the image tag would look like:

    <img src="yourImageName.jpg" alt="Short image description" class="float-left">

    Then you would add the css attributes you need to the css class to style the image:

    .float-left {

    float: left;

    margin: 0 15px 0 0;

    }

    Have you just opened the box today? To use DW effectively you really require a reasonable understanding of how code works.

    Give the image a class, name it float-left, as below

    <img src="myImage.jpg" alt="" class="float-left">

    Use some css to style the image:

    .float-left {

    float: left;

    margin: 0 15px 0 0;

    }

    If you want the image to float right:

    .float-right {

    float: right;

    margin: 0 0 0 15px;

    }

    forgive me if I sound stupid, but you're saying whichever file I'm trying to wrap the 'myimage'? So if it's 'Billsface' - it would be

    Where is this on the DW page? Where can add margins?

    I do everything in code view but from what l remember DW has a css panel where you can create and  attach css style to the elements on your page.
