No mean longitudinal or toroidal magnetic fields have yet been detected on any classical Be star. Models of stellar winds and circumstellar envelopes around magnetic Be stars are not appreciably constrained by present observed upper limits on field strength. A few magnetic Be stars do exist among the helium strong stars, but these objects show spectral phenomenology which is unmistakably distinct from that shown by every other object known as a Be star.
