Default calculation taking too long

Currently I have a sheet where I enter my data and then another sheet within
the same workbook that makes various calculations based on this data. But
every time I enter data, it takes a long time for my formulas to calculate,
upwards of a minute. I am pretty sure this is because my formulas contain
entire columns as ranges (i.e. A:A rather than A1:A100). However I need to
use A:A in my formulas as my data sheet is indefinitely long and I will
continue to add to this over the years. I don't want to have to go back and
change all my formulas to A1:A200 every time my data exceeds the range. Is
there anyway around this so that excel only calculates my formulas based on
cells that have an entry? Or any other way to make this faster?
