How do I insert symbol conditional on cell values
 
I want to set up a worksheet that has symbols such as smiley faces etc that
appear conditional on the value of other cells - in a similar way to
conditional formatting. Any suggestions on how to do this?

=if(a1="ok","J","L")
or maybe:
=IF(A1="OK","J",IF(A1="maybe","K","L"))

Format that cell as Wingdings (and font size 22 to see it)
