1) Is it possible to add additional textbox control (or a button) to all open/save file dialogs in winXP and vista?


No. They are called "common dialogs", but there's lots of them, in lots of different versions. The old-style dialogs of Win95 are still supported by XP and Vista, since they need to be able to run applications that are designed for XP and Vista. The installed applications don't use the "same" library for showing their dialogs - and some developers indeed rolled their own.

There is no way that you can replace all the Open/Save file dialogs in Windows. Office 95 uses a somewhat different version than Win95, Office 2000 has it's version, bla bla..

Then there's the Remote Desktop-variants where there's no actual "dialog" built with controls, but merely a form with a bitmap that sends and receives keystrokes/mouse-information.

You can modify any existing Window in Windows, using Windows Messages. One can hook deeply in the system, even change the text on the start-button using VB6. Thus doesn't mean that's a good idea.

Noes, and you should be happy about that - it means that virusses can't do it either Smile | :)
