As Klaus said you can simply use "put" to put your desired items into the
buttons, but there's also a tip: if you hold the mouse over a control in
the Properties palette, the Transcript property name pops up as a tool tip.
(In this case, the text property of the button.) These two statements are
equivalent:
  put myList into button "Option Menu"
  set the text of button "Option Menu" to myList
