Be aware of the brackets surrounding the bTABLE ... eTABLE part!Here is a more elaborate example:
<context>
\setupTABLE[row][odd][background=color,backgroundcolor=red, width=.2\textwidth]
\bTABLE[split=yes]
\bTR \bTD[nr=3] 1 \eTD \bTD[nc=2] 2/3 \eTD \bTD[nr=3] 4 \eTD \eTR
\bTR \bTD 2 \eTD \bTD 3 \eTD \eTR
\bTR \bTD 2 \eTD \bTD 3 \eTD \eTR
\bTR \bTD[nc=3] 1/2/3 \eTD \bTD 4 \eTD \eTR
\bTR \bTD 1 \eTD \bTD 2 \eTD \bTD 3 \eTD \bTD 4 \eTD \eTR

As soon as you want to emphasize a cell A more realistic example: an invoice with a thicker frame, one has to adjust the offset. Basically the general offset will be enlarged by the amount of the rule thickness of the emphasized cell. In the cell with the thicker rule the offset is then diminished by the rule thicknessthick rules.
I place here a more realistic example. Consider you want to create an invoice with several columns. There are no vertical lines. The top frame of the table should have a thicker rule than the dividing rules between the invoice lines. The bottom frame of the list of invoice lines should have also a thicker rule like the top frame: <context source="yes" text="produces">\setuppapersize[A5]
Make all examples smaller.

You'll note that the final line, because it has no <code>. </code> in the number, gets aligned under the right-hand side of the numbers. In most circumstances you would want such a number aligned with the left-hand set of digits. To so do, issue the following command in your preamble:
