A search for production of D*/sup -/'s using the decay chain D/sup 0/..pi../sup -/, D/sup 0/..-->..K/sup +/..pi../sup -/, was carried out at the Brookhaven National Laboratory multiparticle spectrometer with a 16-GeV/c ..pi../sup -/ beam and a hydrogen target. At 95% confidence level the upper limits for the product of peripheral production cross section by branching ratio are 2.4 nb for inclusive D*/sup -/ production and 1.3 nb for the exclusive channel ..pi../sup -/p..-->..D*/sup -/..lambda../sub c/.
