We have examined the production of a charged Higgs boson in association with a /ital W/ boson at high-energy hadron colliders, i.e., /ital pp//r arrow//ital W//sup /plus minus//H/sup /minus plus//+X, and find that the production rates can be large. The various subprocesses which contribute to this mechanism at the tree and one-loop levels are compared and we find that quark annihilation /ital bb/bar //,/ital tt/bar ///r arrow//ital W//sup /plus minus//H/sup /minus plus// is dominant. Production via gluon-gluon fusion, which proceeds through box and triangle diagrams, is also found to yield a significant contribution. We also compare our results with those obtained in rank-5 E/sub 6/ models for this process.
