We have searched for production of charmed mesons in the reaction ..pi../sup -/ + N ..-->.. D*/sup -/ + X, D*/sup -/ ..-->.. ..pi../sup -/ + D/sup 0/, D/sup 0/ ..-->.. K/sup +/ + ..pi../sup -/ at a beam momentum of 10.5 GeV/c. We measure the cross section times branching ratio to be 7 +- 20 nb/nucleon.
