if you type it in the search box, it will still work

alternately, you can go to Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Run

Go into Start Menu Properties>Start Menu>Customise>Advanced and check the box for Run there. It will appear on your Start menu in the way you have been used to.

Once I thought I was wrong, now I'm not so sure!
