Easiest way to make ToolStripMenuItem.Selected = true

I have a ToolStripMenuItem named mailResultsToolStripMenuItem. Now I want it to be .Selected = true when users click on it and .Selected = false when users click it again. I tried:

mailResultsToolStripMenuItem.Selected = true;

but it shows an error that the property is read-only.

Were you looking for ToolStripMenuItem.Checked?

// true if the ToolStripMenuItem is checked or is in an indeterminate state;
// otherwise, false. The default is false.
mailResultsToolStripMenuItem.Checked = true;
// Also interesting: mailResultsToolStripMenuItem.CheckState
//                   mailResultsToolStripMenuItem.CheckOnClick
