VBA ClearContents changes formatting?

OK for some reason while using a bunch of named ranges to clear out the data the borders get changed to the heavy border. So after a bunch of playing around with it I see that if I run the sub with nothing in the cells to clear it doesn't change any formatting. But I type something in the top cell then drag it down to fill the range to test it will change the borders of all the cells using the ClearContents?
And what is even more annoying is the fact that even though I close the app without saving it when I reopen it the incorrect formatting is still there!

Any ideas?

Add Bullets to Range
Select range. Press Ctrl+1. On Number tab, choose Custom. Type Alt+7 then space then @ sign (using 7 on numeric keypad)
LoL....figured it out. It was because I put in some data to test with by typing in the top cell and then dragging it down to fill the remainder. If I test without dragging it the clearcontents works fine. Still don't get why it works that way but there it is.
