Hi, I have a notebook in which there are over 1300 variables (symbols) defined. The vast majority of these are dependent variables. I can get a list of them all with Names["Global`*"], but what I really want is a list of only the independent variables. Is there any obvious way to do this? Mathematica must "know" which variables are functions of other symbols, so I was hoping that there would be an "attribute" of a dependent variable that I could use as a filter on Names[]. Any thoughts? I am using V5.1. Cheers, Paul Dr. Paul A.
