Default Relative Cell References within VBA code

I am using Excel 2000 ActiveX Option Buttons from the Control Toolbar.
Within the OptionButton code, I am using a statement like:
Range ("B23") = OptionButton1.Caption
to place the Option Button caption text into a specific cell in my
worksheet. However if/when I insert or delete a Row or Column that relocates
cell B23 (in this example), the VBA code cell-address is not updated to the
new location. Is there a way to make the VBA cell reference relative so that
the VBA code does not have to be updated each time a design change
(Insert/Delete Row or Column) is made to the Worksheet?
Any help will certainly be appreciated.
Thank you

Use named ranges.
