In case anyone needs to do this, I figured out how. Create an image, with the desired label text and place it over the the pulldown menu button. Then set the disabled of the image to true. The image is not altered when it is disabled, so the button still appears to have a standard font - actually it is the image made to look like the button, but the user will not realize that. When you click on a disabled image, the click goes through to the object below. In this case, the object below is a button using wingdings font.
