Ah, I wasn't being too clear. i want to set up the table formatting in the document header, not within the text. Should I then be using the \setuptables command instead? I don't really understand the difference.
The bTABLE-eTABLE environment is a complete other environment than the \startable-\stoptable environment. I do not know whether \startable cum suis work in a header. I developed a header with a table with the \bTABLE environment.
\setupheadertexts[][% {\hbox to \hsize {\switchtobodyfont[small]% %\setupframed % [align=right,top=\vfill,bottom=,width=\makeupwidth,frame=off]% {\bTABLE \setupTABLE[frame=on] \setupTABLE[column][1][width=.65\textwidth] \setupTABLE[column][2][width=.35\textwidth] \bTR \bTD Document: \bf\hfill\headnumber[part]~\getmarking[part][current] \eTD \bTD Page: \hfill \pagenumber~ of \aantalsubpaginas \eTD\eTR \eTABLE}}}]
better use something \startbuffer[myheader] .... \stopbuffer with \setupheadertexts[... \getbuffer ....] or \startsetups[myheader] .... \stopsetups \setupheadertexts[... {\setups[myheader]} ...] Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE | pragma@wxs.nl Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- information: http://www.pragma-ade.com/roadmap.pdf documentation: http://www.pragma-ade.com/showcase.pdf -------------------------------------------------------------------------
