Table cell spanning multiple columns in tabulate

15 Jul 2013

      Hello ConTeXt users,

I am switching from texexec to context, and from table to tabulate.
Question: What is the equivalent for \use{2}\ReFormat[c]{text} in the
\table environment, when you what to do the same in the \tabulate
environment? I couldn't find the answer in the contextgarden.

Thank you for your help.

Please have a look at the following code.
