Hello all. I have a question regarding the entering of data in Minitab and then runn a graph. Currently, we enter our data in blocks. In other words, we like to see data for each "lot" of material in even rows. Unfortunately, each lot has varying amounts of data points. This makes the spread sheet look jumbled. To keep the data for each lot in a uniform look and feel we block each lot together. The result is there are often several cells that are left blank at the end of each lot of data. When running the graph, Minitab does not take these empty cells into acount like Statgraphics does but it does affect the chart. When Minitab encounters a blank cell it leaves a mark below the lower standard limit to show the place of the empty cell. When charting, this gets confusing. I was wondering if there was a way to get Minitab to totally disregard the empty cells when charting and calculating standard deviations and upper and lower limits. I have used stat graphics for years and found it to be limited as well. If there is any way to do this I would appreciate the info.
Thanks
Steve
