Simply Speaking
You can dictate text into ANY Windows application by clicking your mouse where you want it to begin typing and saying Begin dictation. To end, say Stop dictation.
Always correct misunderstood phrases after dictation is completed just highlight misunderstood phrase by mouse and say Correct this.
You are able to dictate dates, dollar amounts, numbers, etc. They will be automatically formatted.
However, some unusual names may not be recognized properly, because speech engine does not have them in its vocabulary.
