Excel VBA - format a whole column excluding the heading line

Question

I want to format a column but to exclude the first row as this is the header:

My current Code is:

Sheets("Sheet1").Columns(3).NumberFormat = "#,##0"

Thank you.

Answer 1

Unless the header is a number you shouldn't need to do this, I don't think. The number format won't affect text (at least not much). But here's a way:

With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1")
   .Columns(3).Resize(.Rows.Count - 1, 1).Offset(1, 0).NumberFormat = "#,##0"
End With

Answer 2

Alternatively

Sheets("Sheet1").Range(cells(2,3), cells(2,3).end(xldown)).NumberFormat = "#,##0"

This would select not the entire column, but the range from your first to last non-blank row. If you have empty cells in between your first and last row, this is not an appropriate solution, however.
