It should be fairly easy to underline duplicate ampersand-shortcuts when manually editing resources (.rc).

BUTTON "&All items" <--- Shortcut #1 will not work...
BUTTON "Select &All" <--- Shortcut #2 will not work...

Underlining them (or similar) would be nice.

Personally I do not use .rc files, so this may be a silly question. Is it possible to have more than one dialog in a single .rc file? Also what about menu's?

Duplicate shortcut keys are irritating, I know this, as a keyboard user I hate them. But detecting duplicates requires a grasp of the scope involved. For example menu items inside menu's are "hidden" from other things.

Yes you can have multiple dialogs and menus in a single .rc file.
