Ton,
Although you have given up, you might want to consider this, which seems
to work in a simple test stack.
The flimsy part of this is that you need to know the height of a
menuitem in your popup, and I don't know a way to get this
programmatically. I did a screenshot and measured it at 17 pixels on XP
here.
The offset of the popup topleft sets the last selection under the mouse
when the menu pops up, and I find that highlights it.
--card script
on mousedown
put max(field "num",1) into tn
popup btn "testpop" at mouseh()-8,(mousev()-8-((tn-1)*17))
end mousedown
--script of popup button "testpop"
on menupick
put the menuhistory of me into field "num"
end menupick
## My test stack has a field "num" which holds the
## last menuhistory of btn "testpop"
## just for testing purposes of course

Just one more!
Try this:
select line fGetMenuItem(fld "TestField") of the text of me
About 1000 to 1 odds on it working tho!
All the Best

Unless I misunderstood what you ment, it doesn't work...
I have a button on the card of type "pop up" named "TestMenu"
This button has got 10 lines of text, which creates a menu of 10 items.
I have one field on the card named "Test"
The button contains the following code:
on mouseDown
select line fGetMenuItem(fld "TestField") of me
end mouseDown
ON menupick vChoice
put vChoice into fld "TestField"
set the menuHistory of me to fGetMenuItem(fld "TestField")
END menupick
FUNCTION fGetMenuItem vMenuItemName
put the text of button "TestMenu" into vMenuText
put lineOffset(vMenuItemName,vMenuText) into vMenuItem
return vMenuItem
END fGetMenuItem
and the result: The menu just pops up with item 1 underneath the
cursor :-(
Any more suggestions?

Have you tried:
select line GetMeniItem("theMenuString") of me
This may work.
All the Best
