Measurement of inclusive D* production and F_2charm with ZEUS at HERA

Inclusive production of D^*(2010) mesons in deep inelastic sacttering was 
measured with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity 
of 360 pb-1. Differential D^* cross sections are compared to 
next-to-leading-order QCD theoretical predictions. The observed cross section
was extrapolated to the full kinematic region in P_T(D^*) and eta(D^*) in 
order to determine the open charm contribution,F2c, to the proton structure 
function F2. This and earlier results are compared to NLO QCD predictions.
