You choose the Server List type when you are loading a dynamic server list from disk rather than including the list in the script.  The script compiler searches for a server list with the specified name and a suffix of .$S$.  These lists are maintained using the Insert Server List dialog and are stored in the Beyond FTP program files directory.  For example, the selection above would produce the command:

            :Server_List: APT Load

All server lists are processed at compile time.  They do not appear in the compiled script file itself, but merely provide a shorthand way of writing scripts.  For this reason, the actions that appear in a compiled script are the result of any server list expansions.  Fully dynamic operation is achieved using the Recompile command.
