  Recent progress in lattice calculations of properties of open-charm mesons,
both regular and exotic, is reviewed, with an emphasis on spectroscopy. After
reviewing recent calculations of excited state energy levels I will discuss
progress in extracting hadronic masses and widths of charmed states from
Lattice QCD simulations including low-lying scattering channels directly, to
determine phase shift data and bound state/ resonance properties. With regard
to other properties results from recent calculations of the $DD^*\pi$ and
$DD\rho$, $D^*D^*\rho$ couplings are presented. Beyond regular mesons, searches
for explicitly exotic (tetraquark) states are also reviewed.
