You could do it for just the first cell in the mergearea or even simpler:

cell.value = ""
instead of
cell.clearcontents

for each cell in Activesheet.UsedRange
if not cell.Locked then
cell.clearcontents
end if
Next


or assuming you wouldn't clear formulas


for each cell in Activesheet.UsedRange.SpecialCells
(xlconstants)
if not cell.Locked then
cell.clearcontents
end if
Next
' or if you would add
for each cell in Activesheet.UsedRange.SpecialCells
(xlformulas)
if not cell.Locked then
cell.clearcontents
end if
Next
