Would using "line one of text" & (ACSII character 10) & "another line" do what you want?

Subject: Formatting Text When Responding to a Dialog Box
When I run the following script:
tell application "Finder"
set theText to text returned of (display dialog "What address do you want to display?" default answer "")
display dialog theText
end tell
I would like to see the text displayed as:
1234 Oak Street
Some City, Some State 12345
Using the 'Return' when inputting the text closes the dialog window rather than starting a new line. Doing it in 2 segments "What is the street address?" and "What are the city, state and zip?" is not practical for what I am doing. Is it possible to do what I want, and if so how?
Thanks in Advance,
Bob Young
