Small tip: In English sentences are easier to read (and people are more
likely to read them) if they contain a subject.

> Using R ver 1.4.0 package MASS function lda()

Try
> obj <- lda(.....)
> cf <- coef(obj)

> Help says resulting object should have "components" (among others): means,

Which "program" returns NULL for all of them?

Look carefully at the returned object and try, for example,

> names(obj)

or

> unclass(obj)

or for a particular component (why do you put this word in quotes above?)

> obj$svd  # &c
