new GrammarBuilder("My Password is");
passwordBuilder.Append(passwordKey);
Grammar passwordGrammar = new Grammar(passwordBuilder);
passwordGrammar.Name = "Password input";
passwordGrammar.SpeechRecognized +=
new EventHandler<SpeechRecognizedEventArgs>(

// Handle the SpeechRecognized event for the password grammar.
private void PasswordInputHandler(object sender, SpeechRecognizedEventArgs e)
{

result.GetAudioForWordRange(
result.Words[3], result.Words[result.Words.Count - 1]);

// Add code to handle a valid password here.
