I put commands like the one under discussion in a
separate file called "macros.tex" which is hte
first file called in my standard "book.tex"
top level file.
For some reason it didn't work. So I copied it to
just before my first text frame in the
'chapter01.tex' file. Then it worked for that
frame and subsequent instances.

Here is my book.tex file as used in my current
project:

\input variables.tex
\input macros.tex
\input fonts.tex
\starttext
%\showlayout
\startfrontmatter
\input half.tex
\input title.tex
\input contents.tex
\stopfrontmatter
\startbodymatter
%\input sample3.tex
\input body.tex
\stopbodymatter
\stoptext

I will add more calls later for acknowledgements,
appendices etc. all in separate subfiles.
\body.tex is a subfile that calls the individual 
chapter subsubfiles.

Variables.tex contains the definitions of title,
subtitle, author, publisher, ISBN etc.
