Dear Luigi, dear Rolf, thank you for your help. Below is a (hopefully) better example of what I try to do and where it fails. The last line in tabulate (starting with 22C6) loses the grid, and I can't see why. Unfortunately the solutions you suggested did not work for me. I do want to avoid to

Hi, I am having a problem using nested natural tables, to which I have a solution but feel that it my not be the proper approach. I'm pretty much a TeX and ConTeXt novice. The problem is that the row height it reduced when a table is nested, breaking vertical text alignment across cells.

Thanks, Wolfgang and Zhichu. I've managed to get it working. The only problem now is to work out how to modify the original macros. Numbering is OK up to 20. Then we get onetwenty, twotwenty, threetwenty (I did find out how to remove the 'und'). So that's another project! thanks again
