Hi patrick,
just to explain WHY i got confused. I was looking at knuth.tex as a simple
example. An *this* example contains no \startX or \stopX . So i got the
impression that contex may not need them.
And when you see the examples in  "typesetting flow charts" no hint either.
It would enought to add
\starttext
\FLOWchart[grid]
\stoptext
on page 2. Then you have a (working) example; problem solved.

btw: any document describing something should have a complet working example.
when you start with something totaly new, you have no ide where to look for an
error. a simple typo can cause havoc distracing you from the real problem.

regards,
wh

Hello Walter,

You should alway start with a simple document and then extend it.

Which document are you talking about. Can you give the filename or
the full title?

If this is a specialized document: You should do some steps with pure
ConTeXt first.
