Iconic game with the IF function

Solved

Hello

I’m starting with Excel and discovering the many possibilities, but despite that I can’t get what I want.
I would like to display, based on the result: won, lost, in progress... a green, red icon...
The icons are only used with numeric data, so I thought of the IF function which I don’t master very well. If Won, display 1, if in progress display 2... then apply formatting with the icon sets.

Thank you for your help

    Hello
    =IF(A1="Won";1;IF(A1="Lost";2;... etc)))
    and close with as many parentheses as there are IFs

    ... but you can directly display a Widget in cell B1 with a formula MFC
    format B1 in Wingdings font and place the formula:
    =IF(A1="Won";"J";IF(A1="Lost";"L";"K"))
    and see the result
    you can assign to this cell a MFC per formula:
    =B1="J" > green format
    =B1="L" > red format
    this is just an example, you can see the characters and their font formatting by selecting B1 / Ribbon / Insert/ Symbol and inserting

      Thank you very much Vaucluse, I had an issue with parentheses in my formula. I opted for Wingdings smileys.
