The e⁺e⁻ annihilation data recorded with the BABAR detector has been used to study B decays to D{sub s}{sup (*)±} and D{sup *±} mesons. The production fraction of inclusive D{sub s}{sup (*)}± and the corresponding momentum spectra have been determined. Exclusive decays B° → D{sup *-} D{sub s}{sup (*)+} have been identified with a partial reconstruction technique and their branching fractions have been measured. They also report branching fraction measurements for the exclusive hadronic modes B° → D{sup *-} π⁺ and B° → D{sup *-} Pρ⁺.
