Any help is very appreciated. > The next version of Mathematica (3.0) will have a boundary value solver for single linear nth order equations, where you can give multiple boundary values or equations with multiple boundary values. However, solving systems of ODEs with multiple boundary conditions might come in some later versions but not in version 3.0 (that is a very complicated problem) so for such systems you might wish to look for other software.
