Default how do i calculate the difference between two numbers?

Hello,
I am having difficulty in finding the difference between two numbers,
i have two cloumns which have for example the numbers C3=2 and D3=10, where
the difference would be E3=8 and numbers C4=12 and D4=7 where the difference
would be E4=5, how do i do this in excel without getting negative numbers
such as C3-D3=-8?
thank you for your help,
Dougie
