You might consider using a 3rd party SMS service. For example, you send an SMS to 123-123-1234 or something, which is forwarded by this SMS service to a POP mail account. You can then use PHP (cron, perhaps?) to check this POP account for emails, and when one comes, execute the query as appropriate.
One of my projects does a lot of work with SMS', but only sends them to the phones. i.e. User submits form, and the form is saved to database, but is also SMSed to certain people. I didn't want to mess around with a gateway on my server, so I used Vodacom which works perfectly. Perhaps it can work the other way.
I'm sure a gateway might work better for you than the above solution. Just look into the other options as well, because they might be easier than a gateway.

Re: PHP SMS Application HELP
Three people in this thread have names that have the same format firstname.lastname, were registered on the same date, have signatures that have the same format, and the latter two have said the same thing--repeated what I had already said. Is all that purely coincidence?
