Hi,

when you see nothing, than you are working with
Mathematica 6.0 ??

Try

mysol[w_?NumericQ] :=
  NDSolve[{x'[t] == -y[t] - x[t]^2, y'[t] == w x[t] - y[t]^3,
     x[0] == y[0] == 1}, {x, y}, {t, 20}][[1]]

Manipulate[
  DynamicModule[{sol},
   sol = mysol[w];
   Plot[{x[t], y[t]} /. sol, {t, 0, 20}, Evaluated -> True]], {w, 2.,
   4}]

Regards
   Jens
