The function *DumpSave* should be what you are looking for. Here is an example: we save the interpolating function in the default user directory, then, in a new session, we load its definition with *Get* (or <<). In[1]:= f = First[u /. NDSolve[{u''[t] + u[t] == 0, u[0] == 0, u'[0] == 1}, u, {t, 0, \[Pi]}]] Out[1]= InterpolatingFunction[] In[2]:= DumpSave["f.mx", f] Out[2]= InterpolatingFunction[] In[3]:= Quit[] (* Later, in a fresh session *) In[1]:= << f.mx In[2]:= Plot[{f[t], f'[t]}, {t, 0, \[Pi]}] [... graphic deleted ...] Regards, -- Jean-Marc
