Hi Darren,

If the cells for Nov/Dec are empty then the line should stop at October.
If the cells contain a formula which returns zero for Nov/Dec then
modify the formula to use NA() function instead of zero.

You might also check that the option for Chart - Plot Empty cells as:
is set to Not plotted(leave gaps). Select the chart and use the menu
Tools Options. Click Chart tab.

Cheers
Andy

I have a line graph which is plotting values from a worksheet for the
period January through December. I would like the chart's X-Axis to
show each month from January to December, but if there is no value yet
for some of the later months, I would like it plot nothing at all.

In other words, if there is data only for January to October, I would
like the plot line to cease in October and leave the area in the chart
dealing with November and December empty until there is data. Does
anyone have any thoughts as to how this might be accomplished?

Kind regards,
Darren
