Default Calculating negative time & creating scrol bars for fixed size txt box.

2 probs:
first - I'm trying to monitor arriving times by entering sched & actual arrival times into a table & using a formular to calculate if late or early etc e.g.
STA = 04:50
ATA = 04:45.
I have the cells in time format. If the actual arrival time is 04:45 OR 04:55, how do I create a formular to show positive or negative time?
I.e: 00:05(if its 5 min late) or -00:05(if 5 min early)
So far, it returns to show 5 min late as 00:05 (Great!)but early returns as ######. (no good to me!!)

Secoundly - I want to have a fixed size box that I can enter free flowing data or txt in to & then have a scrol on the side once the initial space is filled.....exactly the same as this box has just done when I exceeded origional size !! (I can create boxes OR scrol bars but not both !)
Help will be much appreciated so thx in advance. jon
