Because Tables are for storing data and not for viewing, tables do not
support center alignment.

Create a form. While in Form Design View, select the control and click
the Center Align tool button.
Set the Form Display View to Datasheet.
It will now show the form as a table, but the data will be centered in
the column.

Not in Datasheet View of the Table. The default for Text is left-justified.

Wolfgang,

It sounds like you may be missing the point. Tables are to hold data
only. You should not be trying to manipulate how they look (left,
right, center justified, font, etc) in tables. That should be done in
forms and reports, and can be done quite easily there.
