Well, i'm going to try to clarify it a little, but, as I said, is not
posible to paste the complete code; the equations are just too big. I
also made a mistake writing the last email.
So, for example,
{eqns, cond}={f1'[t]==a11*f1[t]+a12*f2[t]+...+a1N*fN[t],...,
fN'[t]==aN1*f1[t]+aN2*f2[t]+...+aNN*fN[t], f1[0]==t01,...,fN[0]==t0N},
and
f={f1,f2,...,fN}.
If Something is, say 1, then
sol[[1, 1]]:
f1[t]->InterpolatingFunction[{{0.`,1200.`}},"<>"][t]
and sol[[1, 1, 2]] is just InterpolatingFunction[{{0.`,1200.`}},"<>"][t].
So, with
sol=NDSolve[{eqns, cond},f,{t,0,1200}][[1]];
a[t_]=sol[[1, 1, 2]]
b[t_]=sol[[1, 2, 2]]
i'm just extracting the solution for two of my variables, f1 and f2.
Plot "a" and "b",
Plot[{a[t], b[t]},{t,0,1200}],
was fast; however this:
Plot[{Evaluate[f1[t]/.sol], Evaluate[f2[t]/.sol]},{t,0,1200}],
was, somehow, imposible.
