How to get data table names generated by the subset operation in a list?

I want to get data table names (in a list) generated by subset () operation on an open data table. How to get this via JSL?

(I will have additional open data tables when I do the subset operation - do not need these extra names in the list)

When it's too good to be true, it's neither

Re: How to get data table names generated by the subset operation in a list?

Here is an example of how to create a list of the data tables created when using a By with the Subset Platform.

Names Default To Here( 1 );
dt = 
// Open Data Table: Big Class.jmp
// → Data Table( "Big Class" )
Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );
dtList = dt << Subset(
	By( :sex ),
	All rows,
	Selected columns only( 0 ),
	columns( :name, :age, :height, :weight )
);
Show( dtList );
