  The charm contribution to the structure functions of diffractive deep
inelastic scattering is considered here within the context of the
Ingelman-Schlein model. Numerical estimations of this contribution are made
from parametrizations of the HERA data. Influence of the Pomeron flux factor is
analized as well as the effect of the shape of the initial parton distribution
employed in the calculations. The obtained results indicate that the charm
contribution to diffractive deep inelastic process might be large enough to be
measured in the HERA experiments.
