Thank you Aditya, i ended up using a layer for my header, but your approach is more succint \setupbackgrounds[page][background=mybg] \setlayer[mybg] % name of the layer [hoffset=2.5cm, voffset=0.2cm] % placement (from upper left corner of the layer) {\framed[frame=off, background=color, backgroundcolor= , height=3cm]{ \starttabulate[|p|lrw(2cm)|pr|] \NC \ss Clinique médico chirurgicale El Abrar\NC \externalfigure[logo.png][width=1cm, location=inline]\NC \ss Service de cardiologie\NC \NR \NC \ss\tfx Dr Yahyaoui .M.K \NC \NC \ss\tfx kaddourkardio(at) gmail.com \NC \NR \stoptabulate }} % the actual contents of the layer should i use the same layer for a sidebar, or better-off to define another layer ?

​Hi everyone, i have a quiet simple question as i'm a beginnerin ConTeXT

(with a background of 05 years with LaTeX): Is it possible tu use tabulate environment as a header?

Yes, but there were too many typos in your code.

\setupheadertexts[\setups{tableheader}]

\startsetups tableheader \starttabulate[|p|p|] \NC Clinique médico chirurgicale El Abrar \NC \externalfigure[width=1.5cm][logo.png] \NC \NR \stoptabulate \stopsetups

\setuppagenumbering[location=footer]

\starttext \input knuth \stoptext
