For best results, always dictate into the Notepad, then copy and paste the text where you want it. Yes, I know this is a bit of a pain, but you gain two HUGE advantages (and one small one):

- you can use your keyboard and mouse along with your voice and the program will know what you changed (you can't do that in other programs);

- you will (for the most part) avoid problems with external things like spellcheckers, text expanders, etc.

- your dictation will be a bit more accurate, since the program can take full advantage of the computer's processor to do its work (instead of having to share processor time with another program, which by default in Mac OS X gets most of the processor's attention)
