I believe you are right, Ex-Brit. Once again, my installation is so heavily customised that I don't know, but the Run is certainly ther in All programs. The Tutorial , I think, refers to the one in the black, right hand panel. Maybe one or the other will be excluded from the final release, as it would be superfluous.

Update. I have just done a reinstall of 7 without customisation. (I love to punish myself)
There is a Run by default, but it is tucked away in accessories. I must have moved mine to the general program list myself. So the tutorial would be a help for people starting out on 7.

It was helpful... I did clean install yesterday.. Run command was not added as default.
I was using Ctrl+R shortcut to launch it! always good to have the button!
