Default Charting help for a novice?

I have a value in Column A and a calculated value in column B
=if(A1,A1*14,"")

I want to plot column B on a chart, however where there is no data in A then
the chart plots B as a zero, but I don't want it to plot anything if there
is no data. Can anyone help this relative novice?

Thanks in anticipation
Dave

=if(A1,A1*14,NA()) should cure it on the chart.

If you don't want the NA# to show in your data sheet, you can hide it with
conditional formatting.

Can you advise me on what expression to use in conditional formatting? I
have tried Cell value = #N/A and White font, but this doesn't work
Thanks
