For instance consider a two-column table: if any text in the
first column should be right aligned (''real''
[[right Right and left|<tt>flushright</tt>]]) and the second column
left aligned, the corresponding format string would be
<tt>|l|r|</tt>.

* <{{cmd>|HL</cmd> }} draws a horizontal rule,* <{{cmd>|NC</cmd> }} marks a new column (or new cell),* <{{cmd>|NN</cmd> }} marks a new math column/cell (see below),* <{{cmd>|NR</cmd> }} starts a new row,* <{{cmd>|NB</cmd> }} starts a new row as a block (avoids page breaking inside of a block, to keep some lines together<!--; available since beta of 2011-12-21-->);,* <{{cmd>|TB</cmd> }} (= "Table Blank") adds some vertical space between rows -- see an example bellowbelow,* {{cmd|VL}} (instead of {{cmd|NC}}) draws a vertical rule -- for more info see below.
When using fixed width, you can use values relative to the

This can also be done with the start/stop syntax (showing only source here, since it does not compile on the wiki):

Tabulate supports header rows that can be repeated over new table
pages instead of the title.
There is a separate environment {{cmd|starttableheadstarttabulatehead}} where
this header row has to be specified in advance of its use in a
tabulation.
In ConTeXt MkIV the command requires an additional [], thus you need
to write {{cmd|starttabulatehead}}[] instead.

===Vertical Rules===
The <{{cmd>|VL</cmd> }} command serves as a replacement for <{{cmd>|NC</cmd>}}
to mark a cell border wherever a vertical rule may be desired (if
they are to be desired at all from a typographical point of
For ''horizontal rules'' see above.
For ''vertical rules'', <{{cmd>|VL</cmd> }} takes a defined color as an
optional argument.
There are five color-specific control sequences:
{|
|<{{cmd>|CR</cmd> }} || color is applied to the background of the text and the remaining space on the right.
|-
|<{{cmd>|CC</cmd> }} || color is applied to the background of the text only.
|-
|<{{cmd>|CM</cmd> }} || color is applied to the background of the text and the remaining space on both sides.
|-
|<{{cmd>|CL</cmd> }} || color is applied to the background of the text and the remaining space on the left.
|-
|<{{cmd>|CT</cmd> }} || color is applied to the text itself - in other words, the "foreground color."
|}
These are to complement the normal table layout expression (the
Those control sequences, if applied within the table body, can
replace the ordinary <{{cmd>|NC</cmd>}}, allowing individual cells to
be colorized.

=Using math mode=
If you want to display numerics, you can simply use <{{cmd>|NN</cmd> }} for a new column instead of <{{cmd>|NC</cmd>}}. This command works similar to the [http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/magazines/mag-0003.pdf digit-module]. Therefore you can also abbreviate:
<texcode>\starttabulate[|l|l|]
=Itemization or framed objects inside a tabulation=
The following issue is related to MkIV:
</texcode>
=EQ option within table=
EQ option defines text which will be placed by \EQ column separator.
