Having trouble plotting blanks on a line graph
Hi, I'm wanting to create a line graph for a bunch of values ranging between 0-20. I also have missing values ('N/A') for which I would simply like shown as a break in the line graph. The program as it stands is plotting them as zeroes, along with all my legitimate zeroes and the graph is not giving an accurate picture. Can anyone help? I know that I could simply leave the values as blanks on the data page, but there are problems with that as my data is linked to a master spreadsheet where the link does not transfer blank cells, only zeros. This is a headache, I have looked at some options but am having no success.

If it's a real N/A error, shown as #N/A centered in the cell, it should
interpolate the line across the gap, not plot as zero, and unfortunately not leave an empty gap. Both Tushar Mehta (http://tushar-mehta.com) and Andy Pope (http://andypope.info) have gap workarounds on their web sites, if you can't live with the interpolated line. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com/ _______ duncanm wrote: Hi, I'm wanting to create a line graph for a bunch of values ranging between 0-20.
