There is some related information here:

But in the short time I had to experiment with it, I could not make it work.

the last example there might work but it is in C too bad that was not in ASM

Originally I wanted this for the window 7 skin that I posted in the old masm form

here is an example  that might do it that I got from ragdog

converting C to ASM usually isn't that bad   :P

in C...

Code Select Expand

    hSysMenu = GetSystemMenu( hWnd, FALSE );
    AppendMenu( hSysMenu, MF_SEPARATOR, 0, 0 );

in ASM...

Code Select Expand

        INVOKE  GetSystemMenu,hWnd,FALSE
        mov     hSysMenu,eax
        INVOKE  AppendMenu,hSysMenu,MF_SEPARATOR, 0, 0
