Perform Dictation in VB.Net

I have downloaded Speech Recognition engine.
I am facing a problem with Microsoft Direct Speech Recognition component.
I have added a reference of this component.
During form_load, I have specified the grammar. (list of words that are to
be recognised).
This works fine for command mode.
But now I need to enter data into textbox through speech. (i e) perform
dictation.
But the speech engine doesn't recognise words that are not specified in
grammar.
As you now, It is not possible to specify the grammar for dictation, since
the user may give any input for the fields. (say name can be anything).
How do I accomplish this?
Any help would be great.

Regards
Meena.

I *believe* what you downloaded is a speech recognition engine - not a
dictation engine.

You probably need a dictation engine like Dragon Naturally Speaking.
