Enable the Missing Developer Tab in the Ribbon in PowerPoint 2007 for Windows

The Developer tab of the Ribbon is chock-a-block of options that let you play with VBA programming, macros, and ActiveX controls. The last option allows you to Insert a Flash movie in PowerPoint 2007. By default, the Developer tab is not visible (as shown in Figure 1), and can be turned on (or off) by following the subsequent steps:
