The posting is unclear, but the first statement appears to be
incorrect.  The interaction effect is different than the main
effects of treatment and block (assuming here you were referring
to one of the factors in your factorial design rather than the
variability due to blocks in a within-subject design).  The
significance or nonsignificance of the main effects tells us
nothing about the interaction.
