Hi Group,
Hope someone can help me here. Here is my set up.
In d3:e3 I have merged cells called North, f3:g3 South,
h3:i3 East, j3:k3 West.
In d4 I have a date 01/02/2005 and in e4 I have a date
01/03/2005. This date sequence is the same for South,
East & West.
In C4 I have a header called Sales. In cells C5:C34 I
have names of Reps. In D5:k34 I have data containing
sales made by Reps. To note: Reps sell goods in 1 area
only but sometimes Reps will sell goods in 2 or 3 areas.
I can produce a graph by area but Excel lists all reps for
all areas. I would like Excel to detect and remove from
the graph any sales which equal zero (no sales by Reps in
that area) so that I get an accurate and better looking
graph as my current one looks like black lines.

Hope this makes sense.

Regards

Tony
