Hi, I don't want my blank cells to appear anywhere on my chart. I want it
to
ignore the cooresponding cell if the cell has #NA in it. Write now, I
have
over 10,000 cells, but only 50 have results but the chart is trying to
chart
the entire workbook.

Hi,

The blank part of your formula should be NA() rather than "".

=IF( test , value , NA() )

In my series data, the blank is created by an if statement so there is
a
calculation here that makes the cell blank. should it still not plot it
as
zero?
I looked where you mention, and I am already set up to plot emplty
cells as
not plotted. But there are still zeros being plotted.

any help?
thanks

hlp,

Click once on your chart. Then, go to the standard toolbar and go to
Tools
- Options - Chart - Plot empty cells as: Not plotted (leave gaps).

How do I exclude blank cells in diagrams. If I have an area of data
and among
these data some is blank. How do I get excel to not display these data
as '0'
but just to skip the cell.
