What type of chart are you using? Jon Peltier provides several examples of
how you can handle gaps, and how different chart types vary at:

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestion.

I'm afraid the chart engine (or at least mine anyway) doesn't ignore it -
it
plots nothing on the graph but shows a lot of empty space which
increases/decreases as i add/delete N/A's.

If i try this technique on a chart without dynamic ranges it doesnt work
either.

Any ideas why this would be different to your result?

Thanks

Replace the blank by #N/A
So let's say your formula is =IF(this-test, B2,"") then use
=IF(this-test,B2,NA())
When the test fails, this displays #N/A which the chart engine ignores
If this looks odd in a print out, use a conditional format such as
=ISNA(C2)
and make the font the same as the cell background - make it invisible on
the
screen and then printed.
best wishes

Hi,

In a chart I have a formula that either returns a number or "" in a
cell.
I
then have a dynamic range set which plots the values on a graph. The
problem
is that the chart will plot the ""s as zeros as it sees something in
the
cell.

Is there a way I can have a true blank cell result coming from a
formula?

If not how I can avoid the dynamic range seeing this as a zero?

Thanks
LiAD
