Excel cell references not updating when referenced cells are sorted

There are two tables, each with 75 entries. Each entry in the 2nd table calls an entry in the first table a parent. One of my 2nd table columns contains the "Parent Price", referencing the Price column in the first table, such as "=E50".

Table 1Id    Price1001  79.251002  8.991003  24.50Table 2Id    Price    Parent Price2001  50.00    =B22002  2.81     =B32003  12.00    =B4

The problem is when I sort the first table, none of the second table's "Parent Price" references are updated, and still point to the =E50 cell, which is no longer the correct parent.

I don't want to have to name the cells if possible.What style of formula do I enter in the parent price column so that they properly track the cells in the referenced table?
