I am having trouble trying to figure out how in DNS Server
GUI to setup a round robin with two of my web server. Is
there any documentation on how to set this up? I can't
find anything on this.

If not can someone write the instructions on how to do
this? I can not seem to figure this out.

That's because it isn't done in the DNS server. The division of the
load on your content HTTP servers is entirely at the whims of the
various HTTP clients (i.e. web browsers and proxy HTTP servers) all
across Internet that will be accessing them.

If you don't like the fact that you simply cannot provide load balancing
information to those HTTP clients via the DNS, join the lobby that wants
web browsers and proxy HTTP servers to make use of "SRV" resource records.
