When a cell is given a new value, it normally adopts the text style defined
(in layout mode) for that field. However, if the style in a particular
record has been altered (in browse mode), and you want to retain the
modified style, you could try going to the cell first - something like this:

go to cell 1
set cell 1 to "test"

This should format the new value to the same style as the previous value's
initial character. (In other words, you can't easily maintain multiple
styles within a cell.)
