Default Not plotting blank cells with formulas until number appears

If a formula is in the cell but is blank or equals "0", how do you get a
chart not to plot until a number appears?

You can use an IF formula with NA(). For example:

=IF(OR(B2="",B2=0),NA(),B2-A2)

The chart will interpolate over the #N/A errors. To hide these errors,
you can use conditional formatting.
