Hi,
a) your equations will never yield the matrix you give
b)
In[]:=eqn = {3 a[0, 0] + 2 a[0, 2] + 4 a[2, 0] == 0,
-1 a[0, 0] + 0.3 a[2, 0] == 0,
4 a[0, 2] - 1 a[2, 0] == 0}
In[]:=Outer[D, First /@ eqn, {a[0, 0], a[0, 2], a[2, 0]}]
gives the matrix. It may be useful for general equations to use
Outer[D, First /@ (eqn /. q_==r_ :> q-r==0), {a[0, 0], a[0, 2], a[2,
0]}]
Regards
Jens
