private void GetTableNames(DataSet dataSet)
{
    // Print each table's TableName.
    foreach(DataTable table in dataSet.Tables)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(table.TableName);
    }
}

Private Sub GetTableNames(dataSet As DataSet)
     ' Print each table's TableName.
     Dim table As DataTable
     For Each table In dataSet.Tables
         Console.WriteLine(table.TableName)
     Next table
End Sub

Remarks

The TableName is used to return this table from the parent DataSet object's DataTableCollection (returned by the Tables property).
