UnSelect MenuStrip

What I have is a Windows Form that has built in shortcut keys to help the blind navigate easier/quicker. For instance they can hit Alt+b, Alt+d, Alt+r, ...to run individual subroutines. My problem is that the shortcuts were pre-selected for me, due to the fact that my blind users already have so many shortcuts, they wanted them to stay close to what they already know.

So, when a user hits the shortcut Alt+r, the tool will run the selected subroutine but it activates/selects the menustrip because Alt was part of the shortcut. I already make another control on the form the ActiveControl, I select this ActiveControl but nothing releases the menustrip. Does anyone have any ideas how I can programmically release the menustrip, so my users can navigate on the ActiveControl?

TIA
