Hi Marcus,

You can use "dialog". Copy this part of script in your script editor, "show result" of your script editor, and run it.

copy (display dialog "You job number:" default answer "00000" with icon 2001) to dlog1
copy text returned of dlog1 to dlog2Text

The result is a string stored in dlog2Text. Now, you can test the result:
if dlog2Text = "12345" then
   -- do your stuff
else
   -- do another stuff
end if

HTH

Oli.
