need to create a very simple bar chart

So I have my more complicated graphs working. Now I have a graph I needto create where I just want to show the user's score on one question graphically. So if they scored '65%', I would like to show a bar from 0 - 100% and indicate a mark at the 65% spot and annotate it with the actual score. And either fill it just from 0 - 65 or not, I don't care at this point.

Can someone give me a thought as to how to best use the charting control to do this. Seems like it should be easy, but I don't see it.

Thanks!

use 100% Stacked Bar Chart. Take 2 series and add 100 to one series and the score to other series.

Here was a small example

Dim rand As New Random

        Chart1.Series.Add("Series1")
        Chart1.Series.Add("Series2")
        For a = 1 To 10
            Chart1.Series("Series1").Points.AddY(rand.Next(45, 95))<br/>            Chart1.Series("Series2").Points.AddY(100)
        Next a

        Chart1.Series("Series1").ChartType = SeriesChartType.StackedBar100
        Chart1.Series("Series1").IsValueShownAsLabel = True
        Chart1.Series("Series2").ChartType = SeriesChartType.StackedBar100
