How do you create a text box that is a fixed size with a scroll bar in Dreamweaver?

I have a website I'm designing with long bits of text that I do not want to scroll the entire window, just the box itself... Make sense?

HELP? New to Dreamweaver so please no techy talk.
 
You have to write CSS code
Code:
#col_scroll {
	position:relative;
	width:450px;
	height:300px;
	overflow:auto;
}

to use
Code:
<div id="col_scroll>Some content here</div.

You can also use a table and then the iframe tag in one of the cells. I do this a lot and while it can be painfull sometimes, it really does work great when you take your tiome at it.
