=============================

Probably not. The note below says you can't change the type of an  
appearance button after it is created. So, it's not possible to  
change the popdown menu to a popdown list. Or maybe you could delete  
the menu and create list with the same id # and items.

 From FB HELP ---> for APPEARANCE BUTTON...
