Frank,
Sorry for the confusion. MatCopy() and MatAXPY() only work for identically sized matrices. Even if the two matrices are the same size but one, say A, has a subset of nonzeros than the other, say B, what you want to do is non-trivial. This is because to do a copy you must MatAssembly the matrix first and this squeezes out the zero locations that you would like to fill in B. A simple solution is in the code that computes the subset of entries, call MatSetValues() twice, once for A and once for B. Not entirely satisfying but it will work and be reasonably efficient.
