    Vlookup function in excel not working! It's driving me crazy!

    It may be that the cell is formatted to text Can you check the format of the cell to see if it is text? If so, reset the format to general (or some other appropriate formula). You will have to enter and exit the cell to see the correction take place.

    Excel Chart Formatting

    I just saw the FAQ that shows how to not display zero values so that part is solved (apologies for not seeing that earlier). I am now left with the challenge of finding an automated way to delete the line connecting the trend to the "YTD" data point. If it helps, the constant is that the YTD...
