How can I keep MSVS from screwing up my code?

I'm just trying to write some HTML tables and stick some text in there and VS 6.0 keeps rearranging the text.  Apparently there's a maximum of 80 characters / line before it inserts a return and any time there's an "=" in the text it inserts three blank lines.  It also changes every tenth space to html for a non-breaking space, " ".  If I edit in either the Source window or the Design window to format everything so my little mind can make sense of it, as soon as I leave and come back it's all screwed up again - exactly - like it was before.  There must be an option I'm missing or something.  What gives.

I'm home now where I have MS VS 8.0 installed and it does the same sort of thing.  Isn't there some sort of option for the text editor to not reformat everything?
MS Visual Studio rearranging code for no good reason.  Somebody knows. Maybe this is a really difficult question.  I'll add some points.
If I insert = for an "=" it converts the = to an "=" and adds four blank lines. Did I mention that this happens in both MS Visual Studio 6.0 at work and MS Visual Studio 2008 at home?
