Charting a full year without zeros
Help! I want to chart results for the coming year where the data feeds in month-by-month. The problem is that the chart pluges to zero for the future months. How do I terminate the data at the current point (January to September) without having to reset the data ranges every month?

Rob -
Set up a dynamic chart, using dynamic ranges that count the number of values and resize to thatnumber.

As an alternative to Jon's idea:
In the cell where you have no data enter =NA(). These will display as #N/A You category axis will show all the months of the year As new data becomes available, overtype the N/A in the cell. best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "Brisbane Rob" wrote in message news:Brisbane.Rob.1vu3ua_1127516708.2377@excelforu m-nospam.com...
