I do not know if you can do it from an *.rc file.  I do know that this works though:


 static void SetConditionalCascade( HWND hwndMenu, USHORT idSubMenu,
                                    USHORT idDefaultItem )
 {
     MENUITEM mi;

     if(WinSendMsg( hwndMenu, MM_QUERYITEM,
                     MPFROM2SHORT( idSubMenu, TRUE ), &mi ) ){

         WinSetWindowBits( mi.hwndSubMenu, QWL_STYLE, MS_CONDITIONALCASCADE,
                               MS_CONDITIONALCASCADE );
         WinSendMsg( mi.hwndSubMenu, MM_SETDEFAULTITEMID,
                              MPFROMSHORT( idDefaultItem ), NULL );
     }
 }
