Hi Svend,

define the derivatives by:

deriv[j_Integer,x_?NumericQ,funvals_]:=funvals[[ 

If[IntegerPart[Sqrt[j^2+x^2]]>n,n,IntegerPart[Sqrt[j^2+x^2]]]  ]];

and replace: D[funs[[j]][x],x]==funs[[x0]][x] by:

D[funs[[j]][x],x]== deriv[x0,x,Table[(funs[[i]])[x],{i,1,n}]]:

the whole code:

n=10;

funs=Table[Symbol["f"<>ToString[j]],{j,1,n}];

deriv[j_Integer,x_?NumericQ,funvals_]:=funvals[[ 

If[IntegerPart[Sqrt[j^2+x^2]]>n,n,IntegerPart[Sqrt[j^2+x^2]]]  ]];

tes={Table[funs[[j]][1]->j^2,{j,1,n}]};

Do[eq1[j_]:={D[funs[[j]][x],x]== 

deriv[x0,x,Table[(funs[[i]])[x],{i,1,n}]],funs[[j]][x0]==(funs[[j]][x0]/.tes[[x0]])};

eqs=Flatten[Table[eq1[j],{j,1,n}]];

AppendTo[tes,NDSolve[eqs,funs,{x,x0,x0+1}][[1]]];,{x0,1,10}];



res=Table[Piecewise@Table[{(funs[[i]]/.Transpose[Drop[tes,1]][[i,j]])[x],x<j+1},{j,1,n-1}],{i,1,10}];

Plot[res,{x,1,4}]

hope this helps, Daniel
