I'm sure you can change the flash settings in the camera settings menu (left soft key when in camera mode) although afaik you can also use the star key (well, I think it's star) to change the flash mode too.
Hope this helps

Start the camera up, then press I think it's either 7 or * and it should cycle through the flash options.

Niether 7 nor * seem to be making any difference. I turn on to camera mode and when i go throught the settings the only options are: Save to, switch to video camera, shoot mode, scenes, picture size, focus, turn on self timer, effects, white balance, picture quality, shutter sound, turn on time and date.. |

is the scene mode on normal or not?
and.....................and hey are you on bestpic?(no flash in bestpic mode)
set every thing on auto (scene and shoot mode).
then try the * key on your phone number pad or from the settings menu in the camera. |

I'm pretty sure there should be a flash option in there :s
Just to check your flash is working go to the service menu (right * left left * left * from the home screen) and go to service tests > discharge flash. That way you will know that the flash itself is still working, although either way I can't understand why it isn't in the menu 
EDIT: But try what chombos1 said first - I didn't thing of that
