We review the measurements of magnetic fields of OB stars and compile a catalog of magnetic OB stars. Based on available data we confirm that magnetic field values are distributed according to a log--normal law with a mean log(B)=2.53 and a standard deviation σ=0.54. We also investigate the formation of the magnetic field of OBA stars before the Main Sequence (MS).
