    Blank values treated as zero in chart

    I have a s/s where a formula assigns the value blank ("") in some cases. When I chart this, the line series takes the value as zero, and draws the line. How do I make the chart ignore these blank values? Thanks

    Make the formula assign the #N/A error instead. It's ignored.
