It's hard to show... so I'll give you a link to a DW tutorial:
http://macromedia.breezecentral.com/r61914037/It was very helpful.

Basically, with MX, I had to go through the stylesheet to look for settings I wanted to change. In 2004, there are panels that show the styles, the setting, and possible settings, so I don't have to constantly look them up. I didn't deal with CSS in MX so I don't know what its capabilities are, but the person who gave the tutorial made references to them.
