Default Is it possible to define a null value (a la -999.25)?

I've often been 'hassled' with charts not being able to handle null data. Is
it possible to define a default null value that Excel charts will see as
'empty'?

NA() isn't really empty or null, but at least some chart types do not
plot it.
