For the life of me this doesnt work, any ideas?

Many thanks

Code: 
Sub Clear_Estimated_Hours()    Dim Msg, Style, Title, Help, Ctxt, Response, MyString
Msg = "Do you want to continue ?"    ' Define message.
Style = vbYesNo + vbCritical + vbDefaultButton2    ' Define buttons.
Title = "Delete Estimated Hours"    ' Define title.
Help = "DEMO.HLP"    ' Define Help file.
Ctxt = 1000    ' Define topic context.
        ' Display message.
Response = MsgBox(Msg, Style, Title, Help, Ctxt)
If Response = vbYes Then    ' User chose Yes.
    thissheet.Range ("V20:V41")
.Range ("AB20:AB41")
.Range ("AH20:AH41")
.Range ("AN20:AN41")
.Range ("AT20:AT41")
.Range ("AZ20:AZ41")
.Range ("BF20:BF41")
.Range ("BL20:BL41")
.Range ("BR20:BR41")
.Range ("BX20:BX41")
.Range ("CD20:CD41")
.Range ("CJ20:CJ41")
.Range ("CP20:CP41")
.Range ("CV20:CV41")
.Range ("DB20:DB41")
.Range ("DH20:DH41")
.Range ("DN20:DN41")
.Range ("DT20:DT41")

Else    ' User chose No.
    MyString = "No"    ' Perform some action.
End If
   
   


End Sub

Try this:

Code: 
Sub Clear_Estimated_Hours()
  Dim Response As Variant, MyString As String
  Response = MsgBox("Do you want to continue ?", vbYesNo + vbCritical + vbDefaultButton2, _
    "Delete Estimated Hours", "DEMO.HLP", 1000)
  If Response = vbYes Then    ' User chose Yes.
    With ActiveSheet
      .Range("V20:V41").ClearContents
      .Range("AB20:AB41").ClearContents
      .Range("AH20:AH41").ClearContents
      .Range("AN20:AN41").ClearContents

To ensure I understand correctly you are looking for (INC) to be removed of all cells?
