Add a Horizontal or Vertical Line to a Column or Line Chart.

How do you add a horizontal or vertical line to a column or line chart, to show a target value, or the series average? The method involves adding a new series, applying it to the secondary axes, and making the secondary axes disappear. A variation uses an error bar for the straight line, rather than the connecting line between two points.
