I've seen ways to do this with conditional formatting (http://www.cpearson.com/excel/banding.aspx), but I'd like to do it with VBA.


How do I modify the below macro to shade alternate groups of 3 rows?
Instead of every other row...


Sub HighlightAltRows()


* * Selection.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone


* * Dim Counter As Integer


* * For Counter = 1 To Selection.Rows.Count
* * * * If Counter Mod 2 = 0 Then
* * * * * * Selection.Rows(Counter).Interior.ColorIndex = 54
* * * * End If
* * Next
End Sub




that's not quite what I'm looking for. Let me explain better.

If I select a group of cells (A1:M12), I want:

rows 1-3 = no shade
rows 4-6 = shaded
rows 7-9 = no shade
rows 10-12 = shaded

thanks!
