We consider the spontaneous compactification of the field-theory limit of superstrings with a nonvanishing antisymmetric tensor H/sub M//sub N//sub P/. The existence of a class of solutions with internal spaces of constant negative curvature and vanishing cosmological constant is proved. Compactification to Ricci-flat spaces (in particular, to Calabi--Yau manifolds) is realized in the limit H/sub M//sub N//sub P/..-->..0.
