What is all this? 0x0 is exactly the same as 0 o+i is exactly the same as i you did not tell what s is if s is a string, then s[counter] is a char and does not need a (char) cast if s is an array of ints (just a guess), then you want some conversion from int to char. do you? I think you better explain a bit more what it is you are after. :)

thanks I have found the solution. Explanation "s" is a byte array and 0x0 is the first element int counter = 0x0 + i; string Number = s[counter].ToString(); int number = int.Parse(Number); destinationAdress += number.ToString("x2");

Hi, your code has too many ToString/Parse calls. To convert a byte to an int, you don't need these!

byte[] s = ...;
string destinationAdress = "";
for (int i = 0; i<6; i++) {
byte b = s[i];
destinationAdress += b.ToString("x2");
}
