Code:
mob/Stat()
    statpanel("Spell List One",src.spell)
    statpanel("Spell List Two",src.spell2)
    statpanel("Spell List Three",src.spell3)
    if(statpanel("Spell List One"))
        stat("\icon[src.spell[0]]","[src.spell[0].name]")
        stat("\icon[src.spell[1]]","[src.spell[1].name]")
        stat("\icon[src.spell[2]]","[src.spell[2].name]")
    if(statpanel("Spell List Two"))
        stat("\icon[src.spell2[0]]","[src.spell2[0].name]")
        stat("\icon[src.spell2[1]]","[src.spell2[1].name]")
        stat("\icon[src.spell2[2]]","[src.spell2[2].name]")
    if(statpanel("Spell List Three"))
        stat("\icon[src.spell3[0]]","[src.spell3[0].name]")
        stat("\icon[src.spell3[1]]","[src.spell3[1].name]")
        stat("\icon[src.spell3[2]]","[src.spell3[2].name]")


Problem description:

It says that the embedded variables are bad embedded expressions.

You can't use the \icon text macro in a statpanel. If you're trying to display an image in the statpanel, you'll have to display an actual reference of an object with the icon and icon_state set accordingly.

Aside from that, I believe his actual error lies in the fact that he's trying to display an item in a list that can't be accessed.

ex:
list[0]

Hehe...my bad on that one; was switching between C++ and this.

Ummm...still the same errors. I don't get whats wrong though.

Your actual problem lies at the expression src.spell[number].name. DM lists don't work like that, since you can't directly access an object's variable from a list, since it can be anything. You will have to type cast to fix this.

Ok, question - what's stored inside of the spell lists? Because, I'm not so sure that you can do the whole [list[1].name] mabo.

Simple display the list within stat().

if(statpanel("Spell List One"))
    stat(src.spell)

I am going to try the type cast since the Spell is only a child of /datum
