You mean, ds's with no data won't show on the graph ?

If you are plotting lines, then the simplest thing is to plot them 
all, then any that are unknown values will simply not be plotted.

However, if you mean that you only want certain ds's to be plotted 
and shown in the accompanying legend, then you'd have to so two runs 
- one to extract information on which ds's hold data, and then a 
second one to plot only those ds's.
