I need your experites help to solve the problem.

I have an excel file and every day updating it.

red dot or x symbol or any indication if A2 is

blank after 10 days of the date in A1. 

If A2 is filled, A4 will indicate green dot or any other 

indication.

I think this formula might be what you are looking for:

=IF(NOT(ISBLANK(A2)),"O",IF(AND(TODAY()-A1>10,ISBLANK(A2)),"X",""))

X is for the red dot.

O is for the green dot.
