    How to auto-adjust chart plotting when there is "" in the data series?

    Hi all,

    The chart plots the whole data series including cells which are "".

    What can I do to make the chart auto adjust accordingly to only cells which have values?

    I am very keen to learn.

    Try the dynamic chart ranges outlined here: https://exceljet.net/chart/dynamic-c...e-empty-values

    I created two names (press CTRL+F3):

    Name: Age
    Refers to: =Sheet1!$C$3:INDEX(Sheet1!$C$3:$C$32,COUNT(Sheet1!$C$3:$C$32))

    Name: Savings
    Refers to: =Sheet1!$D$3:INDEX(Sheet1!$D$3:$D$32,COUNT(Sheet1!$D$3:$D$32))

    Right-click chart and choose Select Data.

    Below 'Legend Entries (Series)' click Edit.
    Set 'Series Name' to: =Sheet1!$D$3
    Set 'Series Values' to: =Sheet1!Savings
    Click OK

    Below 'Horizontal (Category) Axis Labels' click Edit.
    Set 'Axis Label Range' to: =Sheet1!Age
    Click OK

    Click OK to return to your worksheet/chart.
