My problem is:

I need to solve the following 1st order nonlinear differential equation. I 
am really stuck. DSolve refuses to give an answer and I need the algebraic 
solution for a[Z].


Derivative[1][a][Z] == (a[Z]*((-1 + n)*r* (n - Z*(2*\[Delta] + \[Rho])) + 
n*(1 + r - n*r)*a[Z]))/ ((-1 + n)*(n*(-1 + r) - 2*r)*r*Z*(-n + Z*\[Delta] + 
n*a[Z]))

where


\!\(1 \[GreaterEqual] a \[GreaterEqual] 0, n > 2, Z > 0, 1 > \[Delta] > 0, 
1 > \[Rho] > 0, 1 > r > 0, 0 < r < n\/\(\(-2\) + n\); \)


Does anybody know how to solve this problem?

Has anybody tips how to impose domain restrictions while solving 
differential equations in
Mathematica (version 5.0.1.0.)?


Maybe I am thinking slow but I am really in trouble.


Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.


Respectfully;
Wolfgang
