How can I execute default sms app?

I registered my receiver to get SMS. When I receive SMS's, how can I execute the phone's default SMS app?

Can I use the intent send action to start the default SMS app?

Here "number" is an array of strings with the numbers of contacts to whom you want to send sms to and "älldetails" is teh string you want to send. 


 String n = "";
for(int i = 0; i<sizesf ;i++)
{
        if(i == (sizesf-1))
        {

            n = n + number[i];
        }

        else 
            n = n + number[i] + ";";

}  


Log.d("numbers in intent", n);

Intent smsIntent = new Intent( Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse( "smsto:"+ n) );
smsIntent.setType("vnd.android-dir/mms-sms");
smsIntent.putExtra("address", n );
smsIntent.putExtra("sms_body",alldetails);
startActivity(smsIntent);

}

It can be done in a couple of different ways. Here's one:

Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
sendIntent.putExtra("sms_body", "Content of the SMS goes here..."); 
sendIntent.setType("vnd.android-dir/mms-sms");
startActivity(sendIntent);
