Converting Speech to Text?

Not necessarily a Storyline question...
I've got some videos (don't know what they were created in), that are extremely long. We are going to redo the videos using Camtasia and Storyline. I need to transcribe all the speech in the videos to text so I can go in and edit the script.
Instead of listening to the entire 100 minutes or so of video and typing it, which would take countless hours, is there a program that can listen to the audio and transcribe it into text for me (that I can then edit?)

Jim,
I was researching this today and discovered that there is nothing currently capable of doing this. The best option is to outsource to a transcriber or, if you are restricted to transcribing yourself, to use software to ease the burden.
David Anderson provides a very useful review here and similar software is here. (Both links open in new windows)
Hi Jim,
Could you do something using the speech to text engine in windows but plug your speakers into your mic?

I guess even if you could do that, there will be mistakes which you'll need to go over and correct.
