How can I make a menu item not clickable according to a boolean, so if the boolean is true one can click the menu objekt, otherwise not. -CProgrammer

Did you try CMenu::EnableMenuItem() ?

The Menu is set in the CSingleDocTemplate. So will that still work?

Hmm I tried:
GetMenu()->EnableMenuItem(ID_FILE_NEW, MF_GRAYED);
But it doesnt work?

Try:

GetMenu()->GetSubMenu(0)->EnableMenuItem(ID_FILE_NEW, MF_GRAYED);

Assuming it is the first popup menu (index 0) ID_FILE_NEW is located in which I believe it is
