I don't see leading spaces at all in the sample. However, I do see that the cell is formatted with Custom formatting:<br />
<br />
_-* #,##0_-;-* #,##0_-;_-* &quot;-&quot;??_-;_-@_-<br />
<br />
The custom format has four sections separated &nbsp;by semi-colon<br />
Positive value &nbsp;- &nbsp;<b>_-* #,##0_-</b><br />
Negative value &nbsp;- &nbsp; <b>-* #,##0_-</b><br />
Zero value - &nbsp;<b>_-* &quot;-&quot;??_-</b><br />
Text- &nbsp;<b>_-@_-</b><br />
<br />
The combination of - and _ and * at the start of each section is forcing the format to stay right aligned.<br />
<br />
To allow for comma and centre or left aligned use custom format:<br />
<br />
#,##0_-;- #,##0_-;_-* &quot;-&quot;??_-;_-@_-
