Hi,

replying to my self:

I was not aware of this macro \convert{new_form}{number_to_be_converted} 

So in the meantime the commands which give the correct result become:

\unexpanded\def\Mychaptercommand#1#2#3{\blank 
CHAPTER~\convertnumber{R}{#1}.\blank{#2}.\hskip0.25\bodyfontsize}
\unexpanded\def\Mysectioncommand#1#2#3{#2, \hskip0.5\bodyfontsize 
#3.\hskip0.25\bodyfontsize}

used in 

\setuplist
        [chapter]
        [prefix=no,
        sectionnumber=no,
        headnumber=no,
   alternative=command,
   command=\Mychaptercommand]

\setuplist
        [section]
        [prefix=no,
        sectionnumber=no,
        headnumber=no,
        alternative=command,
        command=\Mysectioncommand]


Again thank you Wolfgang!
