How to set Contextmenu focus

Hi,

I got a problem with ContextMenu. I'm using a hot-key (like Ctrl-B) to
show contextMenu in my program. Things is like below:
contextMenu.Show(Form1, New
Point(Cursor.Position.X,Cursor.Position.Y));

But it looks that the contextMenu can not get focus in this way,
because I can not use the Up/Down keys on keyboard to do menu
selections with the contextMenu.

I did try SetFocus on it, but doesn't work:
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
private static extern IntPtr SetFocus(IntPtr hWnd);

SetFocus(contextMenu.Handle);

Is there anyone have idea on this problem? Your help is greatly
appreciated!
