Can't speak for how to get the list, but I'm using one of the following
in Denmark:

AT+COPS=1,1,"TDC DK"
AT+COPS=1,1,"3 DK"

to chose network (3 is my 3G provider, using TDC's GPRS network where they 
don't have coverage, so it's quite useful to say "stick with gprs" when on a
train so the line doesn't jump back and forth...)
