From the beginner's manual, I created the following:
\starttext
\useexternalfigure
[Photo][hass03g]
[width=.4\textwidth]
\useexternalfigure
[Graphic][gracht]
[width=.4\textwidth]
\placefigure
[here,force]
[fig:canal]
{The Hasselt Canals.}
\startcombination[2*1]
{\externalfigure[Photo]} {a bitmap picture}
{\externalfigure[Graphic]} {a vector graphic}
\stopcombinatie
\stoptext
I typed the input file exactly as in the manual. I am getting the following
error:
! Missing { inserted.

[2*1]
?

Apparently, I need a pair of curly braces around the \startcombination and
\stopcombination. Also the beginner Manual has a type that says
\stopcombinatie instead of \stopcombination.
Do I have an older version of ConTEXt than what the manual says?

That's because you use \placefigure - it must know what your figure is.

It should work also if you write \startcombination (or %) directly
after the caption braces, so that the combination is the next element.
