I don't really think the problem is limited just to the
Student Version, I'm using the full version and am having the same
problem (which is driving me nuts)
Previous posts I've seen on the subject indicate that these
options have been removed in the CS4 versions!

James, Flash text and Flash buttons were removed for several
reasons. First of all, they were quite primitive in the effects
they created. More importantly, many inexperienced designers used
them without understanding the implications of embedding text and
navigational elements in Flash. Any Flash elements need the user to
have the Flash player embedded in their browser. Although Flash
Player is very widespread, its use is not 100 percent universal. As
a result, such people see no content or navigation if everything is
embedded in Flash elements. If you understand how to use Flash, you
should create such elements in Flash CS4 Professional or Flex.

If this is true then I would like to be the one to decide
whether I should use this option for the Web I'm creating!
I'd really hate to manually have to add these codes into
everypage, and although I've used Dreamweaver since it's first
version, doing this may perhaps get me to re-evaluate whether or
not to switch to MS Expression which will me a hassle but all the
same I will do!
Anyhow, I hope this get's fixed, cause I think the extensions
are an important part of the software! Alot of us have been using
the software since it was first released and I think it sucks that
these options are not included since they have been a major part of
the software from the very beginning!
Good Luck and if ya find an answer let me know cause I've
been looking for one for a couple days now.
