  We present measurements of the branching fraction and CP-violating
asymmetries for neutral B decays to D*+-D-+. The measurement uses a data sample
of approximately 88 million Y(4S) --> B Bbar decays collected with the BABAR
detector at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy B factory. We measure the
branching fraction to be (8.8 +- 1.0 +- 1.3) x 10^-4 and the time-integrated
CP-violating asymmetry between the rates to D*+D- and D*-D+ to be A = -0.03 +-
0.11 +- 0.05. We also measure the time-dependent CP-violating asymmetry
parameters to be S-+ = -0.24 +- 0.69 +- 0.12, C-+ = -0.22 +- 0.37 +- 0.10 for B
--> D*-D+ and S+- = -0.82 +- 0.75 +- 0.14$, C+- = -0.47 +- 0.40 +- 0.12 for B
--> D*+D-. In each case the first error is statistical and the second error is
systematic.
