I ran it here (ver: 2006.10.05). With just \placetable[here], it doesn't split. With \placetable[here,split], it splits it into two parts with Table 1.a on one page and Table 1.b on the other page.
With my version (of Debian sarge) this option (split) has no influence. I get one page.
I guess I must install a new version of ConteXt (texexec). Till now I install all my software with apt-get. Do I have to install texexec directly now?
The "Obertext zum Ganzen" is only on the first page, which is what the .tex code should do (but maybe you wanted it repeated at the top of each split page?).
It is not necessary to repeat this row on each page. But here it is repeated automatically at the buttom margin (see appendix). My dvi-file is created with the split option.

Hi Gerhard, I looked into your log file and it shows ConTeXt ver: 2003.1.31 fmt: 2006.1.23 int: english mes: english It's an ancient ConTeXt version, you need to uprade your ConTeXt version first to get a splittet table. You should download the latest stable version from pragma. If you want a repeated header on every page try to put \setuptables[split=repeat] into your document. With new versions from ConTeXt you do no longer the \starttables ... \stoptables command. Hans changed it to control table splitting completely with split-option in \setuptables and makes to let the normal \starttable-environment split when neccessary. You should look at the wiki how to upgrade your TeX-distribution. http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Debian_installation Wolfgang
