We present the results of a search at Fermilab for the charmed meson, D/sup 0/ (1865), produced in association with a prompt muon by 300-GeV/c neutrons. We observe no significant enhancement in high-mass K/sup + -/..pi../sup + -/systems and report, at the 95% confidence level, an upper limit of 200 nb/nucleon for the production of a pair of charmed particles and their subsequent decay into a K/sup + -/ +- state and a prompt muon.
