  Radiative atomic data and electron impact excitation cross sections for the
$2s-2p$ transitions in O VI for transitions among the fine structure levels
belonging to the $1s^{2}nl$ ($2\leq n\leq5$) configurations have been
calculated. We have extended the calculations of fine structure collision
strengths up to 140 Ry and have compared our results at energies below 63 Ry to
the R-matrix ones.
