Default plus or minus difference

You can use an IF formula. Assuming that you want a + if colum D is greater
than column C it would be:
=IF(D2C2,"+","-")

for example above column E2 should read 0:02. (which I know is =D2-C2) If
the entry in D2 is 4:46, how can I set the cell to show the negative amount,
along with the ability to show the positive amount.
