We discuss the numerical solution of linear partial differential equations with variable coefficients by means of an operational approach to the first author's recursive formulation of the Tau method. We discuss a procedure which makes it possible to determine the coefficients of a bivariate Tau approximant by means of a reduced set of matrix operations. It involves no discretization of the variables, approximate quadratures or the use of special trial functions. Error surfaces exhibit a remarkable equioscillatory behaviour.
