We present a search for the standard model Higgs boson produced
with a Z boson in 4.1 fb-1 of data collected with the CDF II detector
at the Tevatron. In events consistent with the decay of the Higgs boson
to a bottom-quark pair and the Z boson to electrons or muons, we set 95%
credibility level upper limits on the ZH production cross section times
the H --> bb-bar branching ratio. Improved analysis methods enhance
signal sensitivity by 20% relative to previous searches beyond the gain
due to the larger data sample. At a Higgs boson mass of 115 GeV/c2 we
set a limit of 5.9 times the standard model value.
