You use the apostrophe, like this:
'55
A cell.
To get from cell to cell across a table as you enter text, press enter.
ALT key
You can type whatever you want into a cell. You do not have to enter numbers.

text, numbers, and formulas
After you enter your text you press Enter to move to the next cell down or Tab to move one cell to the right. Otherwise, you can use the arrow keys to manauver between cells.
Normally, you do not. I recommend you put text and numbers in separate cells. You can modify the width of columns and join cells to format almost unlimited layouts on a spreadsheet, so there is no reason why you need to combine text and numbers in the same cell. Another option, is to enter the numbers as a separate entry in another column. You can hide the column, so the numbers do not show in the view or a printed report. If you have an absolute requirement to combine text and numbers in a cell, you can extract the numbers with a custom macro. The algorithm would be to cycle through all the characters of the cell and save only those characters that are numbers, then copy the numbers to a separate cell where you can perform calculations.
Whenever you want the numbers to be treated as text instead of numbers. Some examples are phone number, credit card numbers, and zip codes. A zip code can be a problem if you enter it as a number, because Excel will drop the leading zero from a zip code if the cell is formatted for a number. 09173 becomes 9173; not the same thing.
A field of this data type will accept both numbers and text. The alphanumeric keys are the part of the deyboard that looks like a typewriter. When to use - it you want to enter text, or a mixture of text and numbers. When NOT to use - if you want to store only munbers, or only dates. You can enter numbers or dates into text fields but they would get sorted as if they were words and could not easily be used for any calculations.
Start the entry with an apostrophe or format the cell as text.
This question is not clear. To enter text in a cell, click on the cell and type your text. If the text is too long to display in the cell, you can make the column wide enough to display the text. Another option is to format the cell to wrap text.
