Kdb DbMaint from symbol to symbol List

I have an existing symbol column in HDB and want to cast that to a symbol list, can anyone advise what is the best way of doing that? I know that adding a column is as follows:

.ds.hdb.addCol[`:.;`tab;`eventType;enlist`$()]

but how would we cast an existing one?

    fncol[`:.;`tab;`eventType;{enlist each x}]
