Default Omit points from plot if cell is formula returns a non-numeric res

Dave,

If you use "NA()" similar to the formula below, Excel will interpolate
values for the points that hit zero.

=IF(G50,G5,NA())

If you want to break the line, Andy Pope has an example that shows how to do
so on hit web site.

How can I prevent cells with a non-numeric function result from being plotted
as zero values. The function

=IF(G30,F5+G3,"")

Plots values as it should for G0 but when G<=0 it plots points on the
x-axis instead of omiting the points as it does when the cells are blank. On
the spread sheet the cells display blank as they should.
