Default Selective Copying with skipping rows in between Macro help please

Fellow Forum Members,
I would appreciate it a lot if someone can help me develop a macro that will
let me selectively copy cells and allow me to control the quantity of rows I
need skipped between each copied cell.

Currently I press the CONTROL button and manually select 50 cells in "Column
A" and manually skip 3 rows between each cell I select to copy. The result is
50 cells selected with three rows in between each selected cell.

This is tedious work and I need a macro that would ask me three questions
before I run it:

Question One: What is the first cell you want to copy?

My answer is : "A1"

Question Two: Total number of cells you want to copy following Cell "A1"?

My answer is : X (Could be 25, 30, 40 could be any number)

Question Three: How many rows do you want to skip between each of the copied
cells starting with cell "A1" ?

My answer is : X (could be 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, could be any number)

IS such a macro possible? I need to set this up because I am spending too
much time doing this custom type of copying over and over again. I need to
tell Excel how many rows to skip between each copied cell. If any one can
help me out in developing such a Macro I would be very grateful.

Thanks
