What version of DirectX?

Please, how do I find out in Vista which version (if any) of DirectX I have? With XP it used to be Start, Run, dxdiag but I'm lost in Vista.

Well, on mine i typed dxdiag.exe into the run dialog, and up it popped!
You can also get to it

You can also get to it by typing "Direct X version" into the Help

Thanks rojash, I found it with the second method. When I click on START I do not get the RUN box up like I used to with XP, so I coudn't put anything in the run dialogue. But thanks for the other suggestion.
If you want the Run option on the menu, just:

Right-click the start button, choose properties
Click Customize, and you can check the box "Display Run"
