Some theoretical problems associated with the presence of large-scale magnetic fields in A stars are reviewed. Possible implications of some recent theoretical and observational results are discussed, with particular attention to the survival of fields from the ISM and their long-term stability. A more coherent picture of the origin of the strong large-scale fields seen in the magnetic CP stars may be beginning to emerge.To search for other articles by the author(s) go to: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html
