JSL for using tags at platform launch

What is the JSL code to use a column tag at platform launch? The tag can be selected when launching via point-and-click, but the saved jsl code references the column names rather than the tag.

I was surprised that this was not easy to find in the documentation or training materials -- it seems like an important use case.  Simple example: Tag a bunch of columns, then run a distribution on them.

Re: JSL for using tags at platform launch

Looks like you can use Column Tag(colTagName) where colTagName is a string. This worked when I tried it with Distribution, Fit Y by X, Manage Limits and Process Screening and it works. Not sure an example exists in the Scripting Index but it works in a similar fashion to Column Group.

Sorry, I shouldn't have been so vague. Here's a more thorough explanation:

Names Default to Here(1);
    dt = Open("$sample_data/semiconductor capability.jmp");
    dt << Define Tag( "First Five", Color( "Light Orange" ) );    
    Column(dt,"NPN1") << Set Property( "Tags", {"First Five"} );
    Column(dt,"PNP1") << Set Property( "Tags", {"First Five"} );
    Column(dt,"PNP2") << Set Property( "Tags", {"First Five"} );
    Column(dt,"NPN2") << Set Property( "Tags", {"First Five"} );
    Column(dt,"PNP3") << Set Property( "Tags", {"First Five"} );

    distPlt = dt << Distribution(
        Y(Column Tag("First Five"))
    );
    bivPlt = dt << Fit Y by X(
    	Y(:PNP3),
    	X(Column Tag("First Five"))
    );
    pScreenPlt = dt << Process Screening(
    	Process Variables(Column Tag("First Five"))
    );
