Excel - Show zero value but hide NA

I have a report that calculates the percentage compliance on various
questions and these are then charted in a bar chart.  It could be that the
compliance is zero (i.e. not doing any of the required competencies), or it
may be that the section is not applicable.  Therefore, the calculation will
return either NA (not applicable) or 0%.  I want the data labels in the chart
to show 0% but not NA (which currently shows as 0%, but I also tried NA(),
but it either hides both or shows both.

Any suggestions please?

What type of chart are you using?

Sorry Luke, I had not had notification that anyone had replied!

Its just a simple bar chart.  At the moment it has a custom format for the
labels of 0%;;;  I did not know if there was something similar for #NA.

The NA() trick only is relevant to line or XY charts. In a bar chart use
0, since a zero-height bar is not visible. Your custom number format will
work just fine.
