Moreover, I don't feel motivated to write a batch file to start up the speech to text converter. For one thing, it's much more difficult for me to write scripts that used to be now that I am getting old. Sorry, I'm not able to help you with the script. If you're using Windows 10, there already are applications that make it easy to convert speech to text. I never thought about using VBScript to start up the speech recognition engine that is built into Microsoft Windows.
