Thank you again Wolfgang.
Yet another question:
I like to get rid of the \par and tried integrating it into the tablesetups
somehow. I've tried adding things like before={\blank} and before\par but
couldn’t get it to work.
\starttext
\startsetups [tablesetups]
\setupTABLE [start] [frame=off,rulethickness=0pt,offset=0pt]
\setupTABLE [column] [1] [width=6cm,align=flushleft]
\setupTABLE [column] [2] [width=3cm,align=flushleft]
\stopsetups
Calculate the hydrostatic pressure of the following fluid.
\par % <-- can I get rid of this par?
\bTABLE [setups=tablesetups]
\bTR
\bTD Well depth \eTD
\bTD 10100 ft \eTD
\bTD 3100 m \eTD
\eTR
\bTR
\bTD Fluid density \eTD
\bTD 9.0 ppg \eTD
\bTD 1.08 kg/l \eTD
\eTR
\eTABLE
\stoptext
