Given a matrix in any of the SparseM forms, you can access columns
and rows with the usual R subsetting conventions, e.g. A[,k]
gives the kth column, A[m,] gives the mth row...

As a general principle, questions about packages should probably
be directed first to package maintainers (in this case me) and
only in cases of non-response to r-help.
