  We present the first edition of a catalog of variable stars from OGLE-II
Galactic Bulge data covering 3 years: 1997-1999. Typically 200-300 I band data
points are available in 49 fields between -11 and 11 degrees in galactic
longitude, totaling roughly 11 square degrees in sky coverage. Photometry was
obtained using the Difference Image Analysis (DIA) software and tied to the
OGLE data base with the DoPhot package. The present version of the catalog
comprises 221,801 light curves. In this preliminary work the level of
contamination by spurious detections is still about 10%. Parts of the catalog
have only crude calibration, insufficient for distance determinations. The
next, fully calibrated, edition will include the data collected in year 2000.
The data is accessible via FTP. Due to the data volume, we also distribute DAT
tapes upon request.
