Hi Wolfgang,

thanks for  the answer. In the first place I also  came up  with a similar solution  to yours. But  that's what I meant  by ”manually counting” and  wanted to avoid.  Apparently I missed  the obvious, there is no special magic needed:

% doesn't seem to be necessary % \definedataset [test]

\setdataset [test] [foo] [foo=first] \setdataset [test] [foo] [foo=second]

\setdataset [test] [bar] [bar=first] \setdataset [test] [bar] [bar=second] \setdataset [test] [bar] [bar=third]

\starttext        foo is: \datasetvariable{test}{foo}{foo}\crlf        bar is: \datasetvariable{test}{bar}{bar} \stoptext
