Default Adding Several Rows at a time and Asking for User Input

Hello all,

Have a workbook with 2 sheets--one named "Fields" containing formatted
columns, rows, etc., and another called "Data" containing the data. I
would like the following functionality when adding a new record in Data
(one record consists of 4 rows):

1. Copy the group of 4 formatted rows in the Fields sheet (rows 13
through 16),
2. Activate the Data sheet,
3. Have the user click on a cell in column A above where he or she
wants the 4 rows to be inserted,
4. Insert the 4 rows (adding rows if placed between existing records
so as to not overwrite data),
5. Ask the user for the value of the cells in column A (A-cells in the
4 rows will all be the same value),
6. Ask the user for the value of the cells in column B (all 4 B-cells
will also be the same), and
7. Have Excel fill in the cells with the values.

Also, when inserting the new record (4 rows), a user may happen to
click on any of the rows or cells in column A of the same record, so
the new record would have to be placed below the last used row of the
record.

Hope this makes sense; any help would be greatly appreciated.

Eric
