Why did the space shuttle never carry the external tank into orbit?

I was reading the wiki page on the space shuttle and it said that the shuttle had the ability to take the external take into orbit with it. Why was the function never used? I feel like it could have been used in a Skylab style station or attached to the international space station and used in a Skylab fashion.
