Run VBA on Event Change Delete Row

I have some VBA built that handles code on worksheet Selection Change that works fine. But I have some formulas that it is automatically inserting referencing other cells.

However, when I have to delete a row (due to duplicate information), the cell formulas do not automatically update. I need the formula to either hold the cell reference dynamically, or and event Delete row procedure where I can refresh the formulas.

A formula I'm using is

ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2).Formula = "=IF(ISBLANK(B" & refrow & ")," & _ ActiveCell.Offset(-1, 2).Value & " +1,1)"

So its basically just adding a one to the cell value above it, but when I delete a row, it holds the same value because the cell reference is gone, and leaves the previous row's value in the formula, and no the cell reference....either way to handle this would work...
 

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
I'm not sure if I follow, but try something like this...

Code:
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2).FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(ISBLANK(R" & refrow & "C2),R[-1]C + 1,1)"

Or this...
Code:
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2).Formula = "=IF(ISBLANK(B" & refrow & ")," & _
ActiveCell.Offset(-1, 2)[COLOR="Red"].Address(0, 0)[/COLOR] & " +1,1)"

Thats more of what I'm looking for, but the only thing that happens is when I delete the row, then I get the #REF error, which is what I'm trying to avoid. Thats why I was thinking I needed an Event Change Delete row recalculation or something....

Just when i delete a row, then the rows below give me the #REF error, and I need a way that can automatically handle that. I have a recalculation button they can click and redoes all the formulas, but I would rather have that incorporated in to either not get the #REF when I delete, or if it does, the action of me deleting a row will automatically redo the formula to not have reference error.

Try this then...
Code:
colRef = Split(ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2).Address, "$")(1)
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2).Formula = "=IF(ISBLANK(B" & refrow & "),INDIRECT(""" & colRef & """ & ROW()-1)+1,1)"
