Hi gang! I do not know why this does not work therefore the following: I have a document with several chapters. At the beginning an environment file is loaded. In the environment file there is a block defined as \defineblock[Impressum] and the block is immediately hidden with \hideblocks[Impressum] At the end of the document there is the chapter "Colofoon" \Chapter{Colofoon} \useblocks[Impressum] So far so good. But after compilation with texexec --final of the document there is the following statement in the log file. chapter : 14 Colofoon textblocks : second pass needed No block "Impressum" is typeset. By the way I am using: ConTeXt ver: 2003.8.21 fmt: 2003.8.22 int: english mes: english How is this to be explained? Willi
