Skip Reference Sequences during copy

S

Cell A1 countsif a value appears in cells b1; b2 or b3. I want to copy cell
A1 into cell A2 etc but want the countsif reference to jump to b4; b5 or b6.
Currently if I copy it down to A2 the reference changes to b2; b3 and b5.

I need to copy hundreds of cells like this and I'm trying to avoid doing it
manually.

Thanks. Works great. A follow on question - how do I use the same capability
in Conditional formatting in the Applies To field. I have the following
formula to check for a condition:

=IF(CB3="Reg",MOD(CA3-BZ3,1)>TIME(0,$AG$39,0),IF(CB4="Reg",MOD(CA4-BZ4,1)>TIME(0,$AG$39,0),IF(CB5="Reg",MOD(CA5-BZ5,1)>TIME(0,$AG$39,0))))

Essentialy what it does is check if a value (Reg) is present in one of 3
sequential rows and if so calculates if the time difference between two
related values in the same row are greater than a predetermined number. If
TRUE then the cell is formatted. The formula works fine for a single cell
but when I use the Applies To field in CF and highlight the column I want to
apply it to, it increments the rows one at a time instead of jumping is
groups of 3. Can I somehow use Offset in the CF Applies To field? Thanks.
