Hi John,

there is a typo in your file. It should be \eTABLEhead and not
\eTablehead (TABLE is always written uppercase).

BTW there is a parameter style that can be used to switch to another
font for the whole table or for the cells of your choice instead of
the \bTH ... \eTH cells.

 \eTABLE
 
 What did I miss?
 Here is the error message:
 bTR \bTH [nr=3] 1 \eTH \bTH [nc=2] 2/3 \eTH \bTH [nr=3] 4 \eTH \eTR 
 \ETC.
 ! File ended while scanning use of \doTABLEhead.

[NTG-context] Limitation on natural tables.
