Use setups, one for each of your 40 variations:
e.g:
\startsetup formatA
\setupTABLE[r][1][align=raggedleft]
\setupTABLE[c][1][width=.1\textwidth]
\stopsetup
\startsetup formatB
\setupTABLE[c][1,2,3,4,5][align=raggedleft, frame=off]
\stopsetup
\bTABLE[setups=formatA]
...
\eTABLE
\bTABLE[setups=formatB]
...
\eTABLE
