Hello,

I am trying to do a simple cell background shading in a table using the example 
at the wiki:

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Table

Unfortunately, I get an "Undefined control sequence ..." error:

! Undefined control sequence.

Any suggestions?

I think the using \start- \stoptable is not recommended (MkIV) any more. 
Instead you can use

\starttabulate[|l|l|]
\CM[yellow] Command  \NC        Meaning         \NC\NR\FL
\NC         \tex{NC} \NC        next column     \NC\NR
\NC         \tex{NR} \CM[green] next row        \NC\NR
\NC         \tex{HL} \CM[blue]  horizontal line \NC\NR\FL
\stoptabulate

Or as already suggested the \bTABLE … \eTABLE or the new xtable-environment.

table only supports colored lines now:

\starttext

\starttable[|l|l|]
\HL[red]
\NC Command \NC Meaning \NC\SR
\HL[blue,10]
\NC \tex{NC} \NC next column \NC\FR
\NC \tex{NR} \NC next row \NC \LR
\HL[green]
\NC \tex{AR} \NC automatic row \NC \SR
\HL
\stoptable

\starttabulate[|l|l|l|]
\HL[red]
\NC Command \NC Meaning \NC Whatever \NC\SR
\HL[blue,10]
\NC \tex{CC} \CC[blue] next column \NC last column \NC \NR
\NC \tex{CM} \CM[blue] next column \NC last column \NC \NR
\NC \tex{CL} \CL[blue] next column \NC last column \NC \NR
\NC \tex{CR} \CR[blue] next column \NC last column \NC \NR
\NC \tex{NC} \NC       next row    \NC last column \NC \NR
\HL[green]
\NC \tex{NC} \NC automatic row     \NC last column \NC \SR
