It's hard to speculate what you're trying to accomplish with this. Though
I'm sure there are other, possibly better, ways to do this, you could add
some looping to your code using the code below.

n = 3
n2 = 6

For i = 1 To 4
Rows(n & ":" & n2).Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlDown
Range("A" & n - 1).Select
Selection.Copy
Range("A" & n & ":A" & n2).Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
n = n + 5
n2 = n + 3
Next i


Range("B2").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "1"
Range("C2").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "aa"
Range("B3").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "2"
Range("C3").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "bb"
Range("B4").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "3"
Range("C4").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "cc"
Range("B5").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "4"
Range("C5").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "dd"
Range("B6").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "5"
Range("C6").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "ee"
Range("B2:C6").Select
Selection.Copy
Range("B7:C21").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste

The code works excellent for the loop. For the second part of my question I just added to the end of your code and works.
Thank you very much indeed
