Maybe you can try  C-c }  org-table-toggle-coordinate-overlays

First outline the header (C-c -):

| 1/A |   B |  C |   D |
|-----+-----+----+-----|
|   2 | 200 | 10 | 190 |
|   3 |     |    |     |

After C-c } rows and columns coordinates are shown:

|   1| 1/A |   B |  C |   D |
|I*1 |$1---+$2---+$3--+$4---|
|   2|   2 | 200 | 10 | 190 |
|   3|   3 |     |    |     |
