R help - Aug 2009 - converting a matrix into a fn

Dear All,
I have a matrix m of the form
 m
            [,1]             [,2]
  [1,]  9072.302 0.00000004462366
  [2,]  9086.811 0.00000005628169
  [3,]  9101.320 0.00000007126347
  [4,]  9115.830 0.00000008986976
  [5,]  9130.339 0.00000011260000
  [6,]  9144.848 0.00000014018405
  [7,]  9159.357 0.00000017344229
  [8,]  9173.866 0.00000021363563
  [9,]  9188.375 0.00000026389996
 [10,]  9202.884 0.00000032406678
 
where the first col is my variable x and the second is f(x). I've
obtained this from the result of a kernel density estimate so I don't know
the explict form of f(x) .
For some reason i want to integerate f(x) over a certain range using integrate(
). So i want R to consider the above matrix as a function where the first col is
the argument x and the second is the realization f(x).
I've tried as.function and vectorize but it didn't work out.
Could u help me do it?
Thanks 
Maram
