When I uncheck (blank) I lose Job #'s 4 and 7 because they have blank data.
I want to plot on my column chart jobs that have no defects also. The wizard
is plotting a (blank) column on my X-axis in addition to all my Job #'s in my
column chart. I am just trying to not have this (blank) column in my chart
or hopefully not created in the table.

The field "Defect" should have a drop down associated with it. From that drop

I am using pivot table wizard to create table and chart. I have some cells
that have no data in them and the pivot table is grouping them in a column
labeled blank and charting them on my column chart and putting them in my
chart legend. How can I prevent the blank from showing or being plotted?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
