How to construct an IF statement forumla for a symbol column?
I have created a list of project milestones and would like the symbol column to auto-populate depending on the values in the "Start Date", "End Date", and "Status" columns. I am not certain if the status and requirements (listed below) for each are flawed or if it simply a formula issue.
Fields:
Red = "Past Due/Issue" - End Date occurs past today's date
Yellow = "In Progress" - End Date is in the future
Green = "Complete"
Blue = "Not started" - Only applies if Start Date is in the future
Any insight is greatly appreciated!

Try something like this:
=IF(Status@row = "Complete", "Green", IF([Start Date]@row > TODAY(), "Blue", IF([End Date]@row < TODAY(), "Red", "Yellow")))
