I've read about using 'Range' instead of 'Cell.Replace' in order to get Excel VBA not to replace all cells; only the ones selected, but having trouble with the syntax. How can I fix the following?

Much thanks!

Range("C2", Range("C2").End(xlDown)).Select
Cells.Replace What:="card", Replacement:="Gift card", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False, FormulaVersion:=xlReplaceFormula2
 

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
How about
VBA Code:
Range("C2", Range("C2").End(xlDown)).Replace What:="card", Replacement:="Gift card", LookAt:=xlPart, _
       SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, _
       ReplaceFormat:=False, FormulaVersion:=xlReplaceFormula2

Think that does it.. much thanks! (Was running out of time to play with the syntax!)
