Convert a list of $NULL into multiple dataframes

Hi Ilio,
As far as I can see, this is what you have done:

A<-data.frame(V1="Year",V2=1992,V3=1993)
B<-data.frame(V1=c("Year","18-19"),V2=c("Average (cm)",178.3),
 V3=c("N",6309),V4=c("SD",6.39))
A
    V1   V2   V3
1 Year 1992 1993
B
     V1           V2   V3   V4
1  Year Average (cm)    N   SD
2 18-19        178.3 6309 6.39
# create "tables" from A and B
tables<-list("NULL"=A,"NULL"=B)
tables
$`NULL`
    V1   V2   V3
1 Year 1992 1993

$`NULL`
     V1           V2   V3   V4
1  Year Average (cm)    N   SD
2 18-19        178.3 6309 6.39
# recreate A by extracting the first element of "tables"
A<-tables[[1]]
A
    V1   V2   V3
1 Year 1992 1993
# recreate B by extracting the second element of "tables" minus the
fourth column
B<-tables[[2]][,-4]
B
B
    V1           V2   V3
1  Year Average (cm)    N
2 18-19        178.3 6309

I have the following list:

tables

    $`NULL`
                              V1     V2      V3
        1                   Year  1992  1993


     $`NULL`
                                 V1                           V2     V3    V4
          1                  Age Average (cm)     N       SD
          2                 18-19                        178.3  6309 6.39

I want to turn it into 2 dataframes:

A
$V1
$V2
$V3


B
$V1
$V2
$V3


Any easy hint?
Thanks
