Default Automating Excel (Macros)

Sub test2()
NumberToBeInput = InputBox("Enter a Number", "Input", 1)
ActiveCell.Offset(10, 0).Select
ActiveCell.Value = NumberToBeInput
End Sub

When in Excel, press Alt-F11 to open the Visual Basic Editor (VBE)

Select Insert | Module and then paste the code

Does this require VBA knowledge? If so, I don't know VBA. Where (what
screen) would I enter what you typed? I don't want this macro to insert a
row number - I want it to insert a number that I provide. Thanks.

This will move down 10 rows and insert the row number ... as an example.

Sub test()
ActiveCell.Offset(10, 0).Select
ActiveCell.Value = ActiveCell.Row
End Sub

Is it possible to create a macro that will move down a certain number
of
cells (for example, 10 cells) and then enter a number? Thanks in
advanced.
