I am using this, and I am not sure how correct it is, but it does work for
me:

property theCopy : ""

repeat while theCopy is ""
    display dialog "SMS?:" buttons {"Cancel", "OK"} with icon note ¬
        default button 2 default answer theCopy
    set the theCopy to text returned of the result
end repeat

First, you can see my repeat loop is an attempt to force entry of text, is
there a better way?

Second, the text input area only allows one line, is there a way to make it
larger, maybe 10 lines tall?
