Use the ampersand (&) in front of the letter you want to use as a shortcut, like &File, in the text of the menu.
Also, if you’re using Visual Studio, you should see the property for Shortcut Keys in the properties window as part of the designer. This will give you more options (like Shift and/or Ctrl, etc.).
