Try..

call GetMenu,hdlg
mov ebx,eax
call GetMenuItemID,ebx,0
call EnableMenuItem,ebx,eax,MF_GRAYED+MF_BYPOSITION

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The position is zero based. If you have a top-level menu item
called File which when clicked produces a drop-down menu
consisting of New, Save, SaveAs, Exit

then New is 0, Save is 1, etc
