cell alignment gets deleted when using backspace in a cell

You could go to File|Options|Proofing>AutoCorrect Options>AutoFormat As You Type, then uncheck the 'Set left- and first-indent with tabs and backspaces' option, but that will affect more than just the backspace behaviour, and it applies outside table cells as well. It also affects Word's behaviour for all documents, not just the one you're concerned with.

Thank you! That solved my problem!
