Default External data Macro Problem Excel 97

I have aworkbook which imports external data from an Access 97 file. The
information imports corectly and adds the data to the bottom of the existing
data as I require. The problem I have is that I have formula's based on the
expected imported data, currently I have copied the formula into the empty
cell so when the external data populates the spreadsheet the formula works
with that info. When I open the spreadsheet and check the cells the data has
imported but the formula has changed referencing a different cell (usually
three cells further down). This does not happen on all the cells with formula
in them. Doeas anyone have any idea how I can prevent this from happening.

Difficult to say. Is it possible that the import is bringing in
additional rows or "overhead" entries that cause the formula to
reference the wrong cell?
