My top row is merged (10 columns together). I wrote a macro to format a column as a percentage:

Columns("C:C").Select
Selection.NumberFormat = "0%"

Manually, it works fine to click on the column heading and format it. But by doing it via macro, since the top row is merged it changed ALL of my number columns to a percentage. How do I get around this?? thanks!!

How to calculate loan payments in Excel?
Use the PMT function: =PMT(5%/12,60,-25000) is for a $25,000 loan, 5% annual interest, 60 month loan.

Columns("C:C").NumberFormat = "0%"
