I'd like to mimic XP mouse selection behavior using the new Menustrip but haven't found anything in docs.
By default in Menustrip, mouse left button, must be released before selecting a menu item. Similary, if left button been pressed and released over a mouse item, doesn't fire the clicked event.
Any idea how can menustrip work like VS/Office/XP native menu control

Ahh... missed that
I think this is a bug... maybe you should file a bug report.

Thanks for the answer Mike, let me explain my question...
The usual menu behavior in VS/Office/XP allows to move mouse over an opened menu, while left button is pressed. Releasing mouse over the selected item, fires the clicked event.
In Menustrip, I have to select menu - release mouse - move over opened menu and click the desired item to fire the event.

No matter what i've tried the MenuStrip behaves indentically in this respect.
Am I missing something
