Frequently used macro-automating?
 
I am new to the forum.
I have a question on editing frequently used macros. Below is the macro
which I use. The rows in bold are the rows that I have to manually edit
after macros runs each time. I am wondering how to set up macros so
that after it runs it automatically goes in & changes the sort row,
highlight row & paste row.
The first row (sort row) goes down one number after each macro
(i.e.-185 to 184...184 to 183....).
The second row (highlight row) goes down one number after each macro
(i.e.-184 to 183...183 to 182...).
The third row (paste row) goes down 3 numbers after each macro
(i.e.-887 to 884...884 to 881....).
Can anyone give me any suggestions on how to automate this, so that I
don't manually have to change the sort criteria after each macro? Here
is the macro:

ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 153
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 138
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 5
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 1
Rows("1:336").Select
Selection.Sort Key1:=Range(".*A 185*"), Order1:=xlDescending,
Header:=xlGuess _
, OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlLeftToRight, _
DataOption1:=xlSortNormal
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 4
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 6
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 176
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 175
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 174
Range("*B184:E184* ").Select
Selection.Interior.ColorIndex = 35
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 171
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 170
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 4
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 1
Range("A1:E1").Select
Selection.Copy
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 5
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 6
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 856
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 860
Range("*B887:F887* ").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
End Sub

My operating system is WindowsXP & I use OfficeXP (ExcelXP). Thanks in
advance for any help/suggestions.
