To ensure your matrix indexing formulas adjust correctly when rows or columns are inserted or deleted, avoid hardcoding row and column numbers. Instead, use formulas like `ROW()` or `COLUMN()` in conjunction with `OFFSET` or `INDEX` and `MATCH`. Alternatively, if your data is in a structured Excel Table, its references (e.g., `TableName[ColumnName]`) automatically update when the table is modified.
