There are two different things: recognition of text commands, which works and recognition of speech into text document, which is called "dictation".
I want to make sure what exactly you want, because dictation is barely working right now...

i mean to say ,recognition of speech into text document,
the same technalogy used by IPHONE 4S.. THAT converts user,s speech into text format

Just saw that line:
if (textBox1.Text == null)
When will the Text property of a TextBox happen to be null?

Actually you want to integrate a speech recognition engine, instead of writing one yourself. Apart from Microsoft's engine, there are Dragon Naturally Speaking, SpeechMagic and Speech Anywhere, and some other products depending on the language(s) to be supported.
Also decide on the work flow: have the engine transcribing a recorded file, or transcribing while you are still dictating? What about correction features? What about having someone else correcting the text? Etc.
