lower code version, of Raul's.
I may not have understood problem, but I get 2492 solutions (oops... now I 
understand that each digit needs to be used just once.
I =: ]F.: NB. insert using fold for shape flexibility

#(>:i.9) ([ (] #~ 0 = |) (i.10) +("1 0)(,@:) 10 * ])I 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2


 # (>:i.9) ([ (] #~ 0 = |) (i.10) +("1 0)(,@:) 10 * ])I 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2
2492

5 {. (>:i.9) ([ (] #~ 0 = |) (i.10) +("1 0)(,@:) 10 * ])I 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2

102000564 102006162 102006801 102006882 102054402

with spec, but 0 allowed to be included in distinct digits

 (#~ 9 = 10&#.inv(#@~."1@:)) (>:i.9) ([ (] #~ 0 = |) (i.10) +("1 0)(,@:) 10 * 
])I 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2

381654720 381654729 783204165 801654723

only 1 above doesn't include 0 (the 1 solution sought)

timespacex '(#~ 9 = 10&#.inv(#@~."1@:)) (>:i.9) ([ (] #~ 0 = |) (i.10) +("1 
0)(,@:) 10 * ])I 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2'

 I guess to simplify it, I would filter the possibilities at each step.

first digit divisible by 1:
  N1=: 1+i.9

Second digit divisible by 2:
  N2=: ;(10*N1)+each (<2*1+i.4)-.each N

Third digit divisible by 3:
  digits=: 10&#.inv
  N3=: (#~ 0=3|]);(10*N2)+each (<1+i.9) (-. digits) each N2

And, so on... and since we're basically doing the same thing at each
step, we could encapsulate and parameterize this step as a function.

  F=: {{(#~ 0=x|]);(10*y)+each (<N1) (-. digits) each y}}
  9 F 8 F 7 F 6 F 5 F 4 F 3 F 2 F N1
381654729

  timespacex '9 F 8 F 7 F 6 F 5 F 4 F 3 F 2 F N1'
0.0006679 38400

So that took about a millisecond of machine time on this little laptop.

Further simplifications are possible, but since this is a one use
calculation this is probably good enough.
