Formula Result that Graphs like an Empty Cell?

If I graph a range of numbers, I get a nice continous graph.
If I delete one number in the middle of the range, my graph looks the same but with one 'missing' point (and the lines that connect it).

This is exactly what I want to do, but I'm not graphing hard numbers.
Everything in the range is the result of VLOOKUPs, and IF statements.

What I need is 'something' that the formulas can return that graphs exactly the same as an 'empty' cell.

Any ideas?

Hi
What do you want to be the result of the formula? is it 0 or "" ?
I suggest you to set the formula so that on this condition it will give =NA() this will ignore that point in the graph.

Ah! I think this is a partial solution.

Having the formula's return NA() makes my graphs correct.

The only issue I see know are two small sections where the results are averaged or summed.

Is there a simple formula to 'skip' cells that are "N/A"?
It needs to sum (or average) all cells in the range, but ignore N/A's.
Something like "=SUMIF(range,ISNA())"?
