Hi Jayne,
If the dictation box is causing problems, it can be deactivated by going to:
Tools > Options > Miscellaneous
Near the bottom of the tab is a tick box that says "Use dictation box for unsupported applications". If this box is unticked, it will attempt to write text wherever the cursor is, regardless of which application is in use.
It's generally successful at such things, though I've had varied results when trying to use commands more advanced that "Scratch that" ("Correct that" is particularly useless when used in certain mind mapping tools, for instance).
Hope this helps!
Tim
