NOTE

In this article we create a speech calculator in WPF. When the application runs and we say "one" then the focus goes to button "1" and in the TextBox the digit "1" is shown. The same process goes for all calculator operations in this application.

Step 1

In Visual Studio create a new project (in the file menu) and create a new WPF Project with the name "SpeechCalc".

Step 2

Now we must add references for the "Windows Speech Recognition". For that go to the Solution Explorer and click on "References" -> "Add references". Then we can show this window. Now we select "System.Speech" assemblies from the Framework Section.

System_Speech

STEP 3

We create the design of the application using the following XAML Code.

MAINWINDOW.XAML

        </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
        <TextBox Margin="12,12,345,267" Name="textbox1" Background="{x:Null}" AutoWordSelection="True" TextWrapping="Wrap" IsHitTestVisible="False" TextChanged="textbox1_TextChanged_1" Grid.Row="0" Grid.ColumnSpan="6" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Visibility="Collapsed" />
        <TextBox Height="40" Width="450" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Grid.Row="1" Grid.ColumnSpan="6" TextAlignment="Right" VerticalAlignment="Top" Name="txtShow" Foreground="Black" FontFamily="Console" FontSize="20" FontWeight="Bold" BorderBrush="#7EB900" BorderThickness="5"/>
        <Button Name="btnOne" Grid.Row="2" Grid.Column="1" Content="1" GotFocus="btnOne_GotFocus_1"/>
        <Button Name="btnTwo" Grid.Row="2" Grid.Column="2" Content="2" GotFocus="btnTwo_GotFocus_1"/>
        <Button Name="btnThree" Grid.Row="2" Grid.Column="3" Content="3" GotFocus="btnThree_GotFocus_1"/>
        <Button Name="btnPlus" Grid.Row="2" Grid.Column="4" Content="+" GotFocus="btnPlus_GotFocus_1"/>
        <Button Name="btnFour" Grid.Row="3" Grid.Column="1" Content="4" GotFocus="btnFour_GotFocus_1"/>
        <Button Name="btnFive" Grid.Row="3" Grid.Column="2" Content="5" GotFocus="btnFive_GotFocus_1"/>
        <Button Name="btnSix" Grid.Row="3" Grid.Column="3" Content="6" GotFocus="btnSix_GotFocus_1"/>
        <Button Name="btnMinus" Grid.Row="3" Grid.Column="4" Content="-" GotFocus="btnMinus_GotFocus_1"/>

Step 4

We add some STYLE for the various controls to the APP.XAML File.

APP.XAML

STEP 5

We write the following code in the MAINWINDOW.XAML.CS file. We add the namespace for Speech Recognigation.

MAINWINDOW.XAML.CS

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Controls;
using System.Windows.Data;

using System.Windows.Input;
using System.Windows.Media;
using System.Windows.Media.Imaging;
using System.Windows.Navigation;
using System.Windows.Shapes;
using System.Speech;
using System.Speech.Recognition;
using System.Speech.Recognition.SrgsGrammar;
using System.Xml;

namespace SpeechCalc
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Interaction logic for MainWindow.xaml
    /// </summary>
    public partial class MainWindow : Window
    {
        protected SpeechRecognizer SPVC;
        public string op;
        public string value;
        public string voice;
        public void InitializeVC()
        {
            SPVC = new SpeechRecognizer();
            SPVC.Enabled = true;
            SPVC.SpeechRecognized += new EventHandler<SpeechRecognizedEventArgs>(SPVC_SpeechRecognized);
        }
        public MainWindow()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            InitializeVC();
            textbox1.Focus();
        }
        void SPVC_SpeechRecognized(object sender, SpeechRecognizedEventArgs e)
        {
            textbox1.Text = e.Result.Text;
            voice = e.Result.Text;
        }
        private void textbox1_TextChanged_1(object sender, TextChangedEventArgs e)
        {

            {

            }
            if (textbox1.Text.Equals("Clear") || textbox1.Text.Equals("C"))
            {
                btnClear.Focus();
            }
            if(textbox1.Text.Equals("Space"))
            {
