i created a menu strip named file

in file menu strip there is an option named Open

to access the file menu strip uaing keys "Alt+F",i changed the text to "&File"
and its working properly.

but what should i do to access the open menu strip item?

i did the following but its not working:
Private Sub Form1_KeyUp(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyUp
If e.Control = True And e.KeyCode = Keys.O Then
Me.OpenToolStripMenuItem.PerformClick()
End If
End Sub
