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?

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.
