VS web designer 2005 - Controls Allways Go Top Left

Even if the layout options are set to Absolute Positioning, the controls
will allways go to the top elft which results in two actions to position a
control on a page.

Does anyone know how I can avert this time wasting process ????

If it's a web application, absolutely positioning everything isn't usually
the best way to handle it. Better to use CSS and/or Tables. Alas, there is
no super-easy WYSIWYG way to handle that without playing with the HTML a
bit.

Then why does VS2003 allow you to drag to where you want it in one fell
swoop ?
