Wolfgang,
thank you very much, for the solution to the problem I was having.
I am surprised tha placelegend was necessary. I thought that simiply
putting the placefootnotes inside the caption would be sufficient.
The solution you provided works well. Much appreciated.

I'Ve been trying dozens of combinations to try to reduce the vertical space between the a table and the local footer to some items in the table, but have just been running into a wall.
Here is a minimal example. For my application there is just too much space between the bottom of the table and the footnote. That is the problem. Also is there a more elegant way to get the footnote aligned under the table to the left side. I am using narrower to force it to postion. This doesn't show up right in the minimal, but it works.
Help in solving this would be greatly appreciated.

Slightly modified solution I already wrote three hours ago for another thread regarding a similar question:
\defineconversion[fnsym][\m{\dagger},\m{*},\m{**},\m{***}]
\starttext
\subject{Subject Name}
\startplacetable[location={force,none}] \startlocalfootnotes \setupnotation[footnote][numberconversion=fnsym] \startplacelegend \startcontent \starttable[|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|][bodyfont=10pt] \HL \VL X-ITEM \VL \VL $\oplus$\footnote[hanzi]{Traditional Characters} \VL \VL $\oplus$\note[hanzi] \VL \VL $\oplus$ \VL \VL $\oplus$ \VL\MR \VL Y-ITEM \VL \VL $\oplus$ \VL \VL$\oplus$ \VL \VL $\oplus$ \VL \VL $\oplus$ \VL\MR \HL \stoptable \stopcontent \startcaption \placelocalfootnotes \stopcaption \stopplacelegend \stoplocalfootnotes \stopplacetable
