Default Use VBA to shade every 3 rows (banding)

'Replace the If condition with
If (Counter + 2) \ 3 Mod 2 = 0 Then

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!
