hi,
i build a line chart and i don?t want excel to show the zero values.

the first thing i did was to include an if function to substitute zer
with blank fields. (="")
the if function is: =IF(J30="","",J30-J29)

then i went to tool-> options-> charts and checked the option fiel
"don`t show blank fields" (i have the german version of excel, so mayb
the field doesn?t say that exactly)

as you can see in the attachement the fields in the table are blank
but the table right under the chart shows still 0 as value.

what can i do, i was thinking maybe using a filter instead of the i
function, but i have no idea how to do that.

hope some1 can help me
ff
PS.: without the if function the fields would say "0

Hi,

Try using NA() instead of ""

=IF(J30="",NA(),J30-J29)

Cheers
Andy
