move to specific cells automatically after data entry

[skidda420]

I'll try my best to explain what I am attempting to accomplish, we enter in serial numbers then a job number for shipping using a hand scanner. I scan the serial into a2 the cursor is set to move to the right to b2 to scan in the job number. I'm using a macro to move the cursor down to a3 after b2 has been entered and it works wonderfully. I scan into 'blocks' which is a block of 9 units (a2:a10 and b2:b10), this continues across the spreadsheet (for multiple job numbers) because that is how we stack the freight into the truck, in blocks of 9 then I skip 2 rows (manually) to continue scanning another block of 9 starting with a13:a21 and repeat the process. I do this with across all the rows up to row x skipping every 3rd row (c,f,i,l,o,r,u,x) which are ignored for spacing reasons. I'm attempting to get my cursor to automatically move past empty rows (a11, b11,a12, b12 etc) and go directly into my next block (a13) after data entry into b10. I've attempted using lock cells and protecting the worksheet but instead it moves the cursor to d10 so i am needing to add to this macro. I know it sounds a little confusing, hopefully there's a macro wiz and I know there's a way to do it, but i'm still scratching my head. Any help is much appreciated!
