How do I make Dreamweaver put styles in an external css file?

I am running Macromedia Dreamweaver MX 2004. Whenever I make a style change in design mode it creates an inline css style. I know I can always just cut and paste to my external sheet, but I would rather have Dreamweaver just put my styles there automatically. Is there a setting somewhere I can change?

You have to have an external style sheet attached to the page you are editing. After that, you can view all of the properties in the css panel. When you have the css panel opened and a style sheet attached, you can right click on the style sheet name and select “New…”. It will bring up a dialog box and you can select if you want to add a new class, tag, or id, and choose to define the new style in your style sheet or in the html. Choose to define it in your external sheet.
Once you have content in your style sheet, you can view and edit it in the css panel.
