I recently did a few experiments with Dreamweaver and quickly decided that it would make things more complicated rather than easier.
If you are starting to study web2py then I believe it is better to get used to working directly with the files before trying to use productivity aids. A good choice of text editor with syntax highlighting is important and I think you will find a few threads in this group regarding users' chosen development environments.
