== Recommended ==
* [[Tabulate]] (tabulation, '''recommended for simple requirements''')
* [[TABLE]] (natural tables, HTML tables, '''recommended''')
* [[xtables]] (extreme tables – mostly compatible to natural tables, better for page breaking)
* framed tables (for simple tables that span hundreds of pages)
|Older ones:== Deprecated ==
* [[Table]] (TaBlE, '''deprecated''')
* [[Tables]] (multipage TaBlE, '''deprecated''')
== Experimental ==
* [[Linetable]] ("new" multipage tables, '''experimental''' and probably obsolete)
}}
Note that you can use natural and extreme tables with the old Table/Tabulate syntax. (To make this even more confusing...)
If you have simple tables with lots of contents, and you're tired of typing <code>\bTR\bTD</code>s or <code>\NC\NR</code>s, you can also have a look at:
* [[M-database|database]] module and its [http://dl.contextgarden.net/myway/csv.pdf manual].
* [[wikitableWikitable]], a TABLE wrapper that uses MediaWiki syntax
* [http://tug.org/TUGboat/Articles/tb28-3/tb90mahajan.pdf ConTeXt basics for users: Table macros] and [http://www.tug.org/TUGboat/Articles/tb29-1/tb91mahajan.pdf Table macros II] by Aditya Mahajan (2007 and 2008).
