Hello,
It's ok for me if I compile the Aditya file.
I have another problem with a simple structure. I created the file 
MyLayout.tex containing the macro and I want to call this macro in the 
dm1.tex file, but it does not work.
Thank you
Fabrice

Hi Aditya,
Thanks for having sent the example file: indeed with your file I
    can typeset the example and see the expected result.
    I don’t know what happened when I copied and pasted the example
    from the e-mail…
    I think the command
            % macros = mkvi
    was not set correctly written at the first line, that is I had a
    space before the percent sign « % ». In fact
            %macros=mkvi
    or
            %macros = mkvi
    work as well.
By the way, wouldn’t be more user friendly, and more in the spirit
    of ConTeXt, if we had a command saying
            \enablemode[mkvi]
    in order to tell ConTeXt that we are using %macros = mkvi ?
Best regards: OK

I believe you need to declare the use of MKVI macros as the first thing 
in your project file if they will be used by any components.
