\define\startTable{\startxtable}

\define\stopTable{\stopxtable}


\starttext
  \startTable

      \startxcell hello \stopxcell

Hi Michael,

I don’t know, but replacing your definitions with the following ones
removes the error:

    \define\startTable{\startembeddedxtable}
    \define\stopTable{\stopembeddedxtable}

I hope it helps,

Pablo

because the \stopembeddedxtable is a delimiter and need to be in the 
stream, so you can't wrap it in a macro

Michael,

sorry, I checked that compilation was fine, but I didn’t open the
resulting file. Now I realize that the PDF document wasn’t created in
both cases.

I would say this might be a bug.

Sorry for the previous noise,

Pablo
