I have a column that calculates the difference between a date and todays date and colors the cell red if it is passed due. I'm wondering if I can use a happy face, sad face and angry face instead or as well. thanks

Formula
=J4-TODAY() & " " &"DAYS"

Then in the conditional formula I am changing the cell to red if it contains a "-" minus sign. Instead of turning it red I'd like to use the sad face visual or the angry face depnding on just how passed due it is.

thanks

Btw don't test for a "-" minus sign, test J4-Today()<0
