Is there a simple way to get display dialog to display more than 255 characters?

First a bit of history;
I wrote this script to replace a very old program "Birthdays and Such". I had used it for years as a daily reminder.

Most of the mail I got said to trim the requirements. And suggested '24U Appearance OSAX' as an alternative. I felt it was too expensive for my budget.

One style of reminders I get contains a day sensitive reminder "Mothers Day - Sunday".

The answer; rewrite code to use the day, but not print it. And trim reminders that use bracketed date reminders (Mothers Day is Sunday (May 6-11).

So, till I get busier i works!

Thanks for the advice,
