Additional series without legend
 
Excel 2003.
I have a bar chart of several series. I wish to add a corresponding "goal
line" series (not trend lines) for each data series (i.e. a set of
"over/under" references). However, I do not want these additional data points
to display in the chart's Legend.

Here is a simplified notion of what I'm writing about. hope the picture works:

Legend o - Current Returns

So far, I've thought of takin the actual legend and tweaking it in
Paintbrush to remove the extra legends, then pasting it back into the chart.
I've also thought of manually drawing the reference series lines, too.

Merry Christmas and thanks for any other ideas!

A single legend can be deleted. Take care not to delete just the symbol for
this deletes the series also

Thanks, I must have been stumble-fingers, because I unsuccessfully tried it.
Fine ,now!
