Hi,

I have 2 "natural tables" in one page and it appears that I have to
(manually) reset the columns in the second table, for those columns that I
had set specific width. See the example below -

Maybe I am missing a trick or two - or this indeed is the desired behavior?
Thank you very much.

\setupTABLE[r][each][height=0.5cm,frame=on]
\setupTABLE[c][each][width=0.6cm]
\setupTABLE[r][1][height=0cm,topframe=off] \setupTABLE[c][1][width=5cm]
\setupTABLE[c][4,7][width=3cm] \bTABLE ... \eTABLE
\setupTABLE[r][each][height=1.3cm,topframe=on]
\setupTABLE[c][each][width=1.7cm]
\setupTABLE[c][1,4,7][width=1.7cm] %This is to reset from the previous Table
\setupTABLE[r][1][height=0cm,topframe=off]
\setupTABLE[c][2][width=0.3cm,frame=off] \bTABLE ... \eTABLE

When you need a certain setup for multiple tables you can put all 
\setupTABLE commands in a setups-environment and load these settings at 
the start of the table, e.g.


\startsetups [tablesettings]
     \setupTABLE [r] [1] [..,..=..,..]
     \setupTABLE [c] [2] [..,..=..,..]
\stopsetups

\bTABLE[setups=tablesettings]
     ...
\eTABLE


When you need individual settings for each table add \start before the 
setup-commands and \stop after the table, this keeps all setups local to 
the current table, e.g.

\start

\setupTABLE [r] [1] [..,..=..,..]
\setupTABLE [c] [2] [..,..=..,..]

\bTABLE
     ...
\eTABLE

\stop

Wolfgang,

Thank you very much for the information. Yes, this was the trick I was
looking for.

I haved added this information in the Wiki -
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/TABLE#Settings_for_multiple_TABLEs_in_a_single_page


Hope it is accurate enough.

Thank you once again!

-Ramkumar
