The inclusive production of D*+-(2010) mesons in deep-inelastic e+-p scattering is measured in kinematic region $100 < Q^2 < 1000$ GeV2 and $0.02 < y < 0.7$. Single and double differential cross sections for inclusive D* meson production are measured in the visible range |η(D*)|<1.5 and pT(D*)>1.5 GeV. The charm contribution, F2c-antic, is determined. The data were collected by the H1 experiment at an integrated luminosity 351 pb^-1.
