I don't want series with #N/A or NA() values plotted. Excel normally should ignore #N/A values and not plot them. Unfortunately Excel is deciding to plot #N/A as zero values. What's going on? File is attached, and I also did a screen capture which can be seen at the following link.

Your formula is...
=IF(C5="Impossible","Impossible",#N/A)
C5=1, so the answer of #NA is correct
As long as the row of data is there, excel will try to plot it. Can you hide the row?
1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools

According to threads such as the one above Excel, while plotting, is supposed to ignore series if they only contain values of #N/A or NA(). My "mango" series only contains values of #N/A but Excel continues to plot it as zeros. I'm just stuck at this point.
but the series mango is still exists but just has 0 values
hide the row() ie row 6

Even when there is nothing in A6, it will still show
another option is to hide with filter
apply filter to a1:a8
filter to ignore mango
@ Martin, nice slick way to hide the row
I even tried to create a new table, using index/small, then tried to use OFFSET in the chat range, but it wouldnt accept that function
=COUNTA(OFFSET($J$1,0,0,COUNTA($J:$J),COUNTA($K$1:$Q$1)+1))

Do you think the stackoverflow thread above is BS? About halfway down Mike Rhodes (with 4 verifications) claims that series with #N/A data get ignored by Excel's charting system. As you guys see Excel isn't ignoring the #N/A in my spreadsheet. It is setting their values equal to 0 and including "mango" series on the plot.
Google can't even save me tonight.
