Answer: To display the Developer tab, click on the Preferences under the Excel menu at the top of the screen. When the Excel Preferences window appears, click on the Ribbon icon in the Sharing and Privacy section. In the Customize section, check Developer in the list of tabs to show. Then click on the OK button. On the Developer tab of the Ribbon in Excel 2010 I see the “Document Panel” command, but nothing in Excel 2011.

Hi SergioX, We noticed that users got different problems after upgrading to 15.17.0.151206 version of Office. It's hard to say your issue is also caused by the latest version of 15.17.0.151206. First I suggest you try to downgrade 15.16 version of Office and check if it works fine in 15.16 version of Office.
Steps of downgrade: move all apps to trash first and then install the 15.16 update. If it works fine in 15.16 this issue might be caused by the version of 15.17, we have escalated this problem by our internal channel. You can use 15.16 version of Office first.
If it still doesn't work in 15.16, please provide more information about your issue. I'm glad to help and follow up your reply.

We ran into this issue today as well, with 15.17.1. None of the control forms work. The spreadsheet in question was developed on a PC in Excel 2013, and relies heavily on drop-downs. It has tested fine in Excel for Mac until now.

As of today, when you click on the drop-down arrow, your cursor turns into a cross (with an arrow on the end of each cross.essential a plus sign with 4 arrows) and you can't see any of the drop-down options. Without the ability to use these, the spreadsheet (for developing research budgets) is not usable.
One of the things that I searched for and had a hard time finding in the Mac version of Excel was how to add the Developer tab to the Ribbon. The Developer tab is a handy way to launch the Visual Basic Editor, launch the Macro dialog box, quickly start recording a macro and access many of the other developer tools available. To add the Developer tab, select Excel from the menu.
It is between the Apple logo and File in the upper left hand corner of the menu. From the drop down menu select Preferences. In the Sharing and Privacy section, select Ribbon. In the middle of the Ribbon dialog box you will see a box listing Tab or Group title. Scroll through this list and find Developer. Check the box and click OK.
You know have access to the Developer tab on the Ribbon. Hopefully this will help someone from countless, fruitless Internet searches that I had to do to discover this information.
