I am a little perplexed about your problem. I created a table,
and entered a cell. Then I used the Enter key to create three lines
in that cell. I Used Format > Alignment > Center for both the
horizontal and vertical alignments. The cursor appeared in the middle
of the middle row as expected. I typed a word. I highlighted the word
and gave it an itallic character style (Emphasis). It remained
centered in the middle row although it was not in itallics. I then
created a paragraph style that changed the alignment and applied it
to the word. I was able to move the word to the left or right
according to whether the paragraph style had a left or right
alignment choice. But it remained in the middle line of the cell.
My conclusion is this: vertical alignment can only be changed
using Format > Alignment or by right clicking the cell, choosing Cell
from the context menu, and selecting the vertical alignment. This is
one thing that styles do not do.
