I have a chart that has a line that measures the amount of items done and a
line with the target amounts. I have the chart showing the # of items on the
left and the date along the bottom. I have made it so the line goes to the
current date and stops, kind of.

This is were my problum is, I don't want the line dropping down to zero for
the rest of the days of the year and i don't want it to stay at that amount
till the end.

Can i make it so the line just stops at a certain point with out continuing
with the "target line"?

Make sure that the cells that represent the values for the rest of the year
are either empty (really empty not just looking empty because of formatting
or a formula that returns a ""). If they contain a formula, replace the ""
with NA().
