Pete,
AFAIK you can't auto highlight the previous menu choice for a pulldown menu
(although I may be wrong), but you can add a checkmark to the current choice.
If its any use to you, try this slightly modified script from the LC Resources…
on menuPick pItemName
## Add a checkmark to the current choice
put the menuHistory of me into tChoice
put the uCheckedLine of me into tChecked
replace "!c" with empty in line tChecked of me
put "!c" before line tChoice of me
set the uCheckedLine of me to tChoice
## Do something with the current choice…
answer "You chose" && quote & pItemName & quote & "."
end menuPick
Paul
