 Ques: How to customize the commondialog open dialog

`I'm writing a program which plays .wav sound files. I use the
commondialog control to display the standard open dialog.
I would like the program user to be able to select a wav file and
then, prior to the dialog closing, be able to click on a command
button to play the sound file (so that he knows this is the file he
wants.) This functionality is similar to the control panel sounds
dialog in which the user can select and test sounds prior to making a
final acceptance of the decision.
     This is really a two part question. 1st part, is it possible to
modify the standard commondialog open dialog by placing another
command button on it?(or will I have to build my own dialog using
drive, directory, and file components?)  2nd part, since there is an
option to display a help button on the dialog, is it possible to
modify it's caption and behavior to perform the code required to play
the sound?
Any help or ideas greatly appreciated.

2nd part: No.

You might want to take a look on www.mvps.org in the section CCRP. One of
the projects is a browser that can be modified to wish (at least, to some
extend).
