Dieter,

Have you looked at the InDesign AppleScript Dictionary? The raw information you need is in there.

Indeed, one of the properties of a cell is its contents, so Oli has actually answered your question for that particular property in his script.

If you want to affect the look of the text in the cells then you need to operate on that text not on the cell itself:

set cellText to parent story of text of cell j of row i of myTable
set cellTextRef to item 1 of cellText
set applied paragraph style of paragraph 1 of cellTextRef to paragraph style "CellLeft" of document 1

That second statement is needed because the first returns a list of one item and it's that item that is the actual reference.

I notice that Oli has put his contents setting inside a "tell myTable" construct. I don't think that that is necessary (and I'm surprised it works) because the set contents command also references myTable.
