I cant use all the functions in Excel,so the program's useless
 

I can't use the functions in Excel. I can't even type a single letter?! An
information appears stating the command is currently disabled, and that I
need to purchase a licensed copy of Microsoft office? How this happened? my
laptop is brandnew and so as the softwares that are included.I went to
Microsoft help but failed to resolve my problem.Can someone help me sort this
thing out?many thanks!

Sounds like the version of Office that came with your new laptop is nothing more
than a trial version.

The trial time period has expired.

Now you have to pay for a licence.

If the retailer charged you extra for the software, I think you should screech
real loud.
