Subsets of the solar mean-magnetic-field measurements have been studied to determine the conditions for which a solar-type differential rotation signal may be seen in stellar observations. Stellar differential rotation may be detected from mean-magnetic-field measurements if: (1) the number of observations is relatively high; (2) the noise level is less than roughly 25 percent of the maximum field strength value; and (3) the sign of the magnetic field has been determined. The combination of synoptic polarization measurements with those of Zeeman broadening may permit the detection of stellar differential rotation.
