Talking to the program

Is there anyway possible to speak into a MATLAB program? Basically if I plug in my Mic and say hello or whatever, The computer/program will read or accept it and respond back depending on the code?

Right now I have this kind of code

textIn = 'Hello.  Password please';
ha = actxserver('SAPI.SpVoice');
invoke(ha,'speak',textIn);
password=input('Please enter password ','s');
if strcmpi(password,'H')
textIn = 'Welcome Hansford';
    ha = actxserver('SAPI.SpVoice');
    invoke(ha,'speak',textIn);

I would like to replace the Password part with me speaking instead of typing. Also how can I change the voice?
