Error selecting columns in dataframe

This is probably a very easy question but I am still not able to figure out where I'm wrong.

I have to following dataframe

 Data3 <- structure(list(P1 = c("DAVID SKOCH", "VIKTOR TROICKI", "PETER LUCZAK", 
                  "SIMON STADLER", "PHILIPP PETZSCHNER", "JAMIE MURRAY", "MICHAL MERTINAK", 
                  "IGOR KUNITSYN", "DANIEL MUNOZ DE LA NAVA", "ALEXANDRE SIDORENKO"), 
           P2 = c("LOVRO ZOVKO", "DMITRI SITAK", "MARTIN VASSALLO ARGUELLO", 
                  "SEBASTIEN DE CHAUNAC", "N.SRIRAM BALAJI", "JAROSLAV LEVINSKY", 
                  "STEPHEN AMRITRAJ", "WESLEY MOODIE", "ANDREY GOLUBEV", "NICOLAS TOURTE"), 
           Date = structure(c(1167618386.44068, 1167619381.13208, 1167622892.30769, 
                                 1167626322.58065, 1167627172.88136, 1167629162.26415, 1167635959.32203, 
                                 1167636184.61538, 1167638943.39623, 1167643045.16129), tzone = "UTC", class = c("POSIXct","POSIXt")), 
           Factor = c(0.82, 1.28, 1.37, 1.37, 1.28, 1.28, 1.46, 0.73, 1.82, 1.55), Weight = c(1.1, 1.1, 1.1, 1.1, 1.1, 1.1, 1.1, 1.1, 1.1, 1.1)), 
      .Names = c("P1", "P2", "Date", "Factor", "Weight"), class = c("data.table", "data.frame"), row.names = c(NA, -10L))

which I am trying to subset with:

Data3[,c("Weight","Date","Factor")]

that unfortunately gives the following result:

[1] "Weight" "Date"   "Factor"

instead of selecting a dataframe with the specified columns.

Any hint?

We need to use with = FALSE as it is a data.table.

Data3[,c("Weight","Date","Factor"), with = FALSE]
