Loading null enumeration selections into an array for a string builder

I am currently testing a program that takes multiple user selections via several enum boxes to display a customized set of information. These enums basically get built into an array and thrown into another VI that includes an index array block. This index array block also obviously has the master array from which to pull these indexes. One of the issues I'm having is when the user drops the menu down, he/she has the option to choose the null/empty choice in addition to all my data attributes I've created. If this is done, a 0.00 is simply loaded into my (concatenated) string build and the data cannot be differentiated from a true zero input. Is there a recommendation on how to approach this? I was thinking that somehow eliminating all the null selections and shifting the enums up in the array would be helpful, but I'm not quite sure what to do.

I do not understand exactly what you are doing.  Enums do not have a null option. Rings can allow undefined values at run time.  Are you using a menu ring?  What menu are you using?

 

Please post your VI so that we can see it.
