Default plotting line charts with formula based 'gaps'

Agreed but the OP seems to have really empty cells (missing data)
But I should have added the formula proviso for the sake of others
Cheers

Bernard -

Don't forget that the "Empty Cells" setting applies only to empty cells,
not cells containing "" or #N/A.

Have your tried enter =NA() in the blank cells? This displays as #N/A
which the chart engine ignores.
Also there is a chart option to specify that blanks are to be ignored and
points are to be joined.
In XL2003; click chart; open Tools | Options | Chart and locate area
specifying how blanks are to be treated
In XL2007: Chart Tools Design; Data group; Select Data tool -- at bottom
of dialog box "Hidden and Empty Cells"
