Taking away the underline in text links

This is a very beginner question (but I guess it's understandable, seeing as how I just started with Dreamweaver tonight) but when I designate text as a link, it automatically underlines the text. I don't want it underlined. How do I take it away??

You have to redefine the A HTML tag as CSS and set decoration to none

You need to use CSS ="Cascading Style Sheets" which is the way
you*should* format all text.
For links, look at www.thepattysite.com.

When you create the style for the links make sure you do it in the following
order or the formatting won't work:

a:link
a:visited
a:hover
a:active

I learned that the hard way. Hope that helps!
