Abstract
Using 1. 16 x 10(6) BBBAR events collected at the UPSILON(4S) resonanc e by the CLEO Collaboration at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR ), we have searched for decays of B mesons to exclusive two-body hadro nic final states including a Ds+ or a D(s)+ meson. We obtain the 90% confidence level upper limit B(B --> Ds()+ pi- + D(s)(*)+ rho- + D(s) ()+ pi0 + D(s)(*)+ eta + D(s)(*)+ rho0 + D(s)(*)+ omega) x B(D(s)+ -- > phipi+) < 1.8 x 10(-5). We have also searched for the W-exchange dec ays, B0 --> D(s)()- K(*)+.
