All you need to do is type in your search criteria
in the "Start Search" box located by clicking on
the blue Vista start button.

If you still wish to add Search to the Start Menu, see:

when you install Windows Vista Service Pack 1. Also, the Search context menu
item is removed.

There are other ways to launch search. For more information, read this
