I am attempting unsuccesfully to format only a few columns as currency. My syntax formats all cells in the worksheet which is not what I am after. This is the syntax I have tried, what should I update in order to ensure only columns C - H are updated to currency format?

Code:
Cells.Select
Cells.EntireColumn.AutoFit
Range("A1").Select


Columns("C:H").Select
Selection.NumberFormat = "$#,##0"
Range("A1").Select

EDIT - I forgot to mention that stepping through my code, the line
Code:
Columns("C:H").Select

Selects my entire used range not <strong>ONLY</strong> columns C - H

VLOOKUP to Left?
Use =VLOOKUP(A2,CHOOSE({1,2},$Z$1:$Z$99,$Y$1:$Y$99),2,False) to lookup Y values to left of Z values.
There's no reason why that last line should select all your columns.

In any event, you dont need to select a range to perform an operation on it so
Code:
Columns("C:H").NumberFormat = "$#,##0"

That works for me
