Vista - Where is "Run as..."

Where is "Run as..."

Before when I did right click on any program in start menu (I mean in XP) I
had a choice there "Run as..." and I could run it as other user. In VISTA
there is only "Run as Administrator", which is not enough for me. I do not
mean that I use so often, but I did once a while... I miss to have option Run
as other user.

Is this "Run as..." going to be back in next version of VISTA?

Thanks.

RE: Where is "Run as..."

this was already answered somewhere else:

The simple syntax is:

runas /user:USERNAME "command"

example:

runas /user:Jimmy "control.exe"
