You can convert the test to a table by following these steps:

1. Insert separator characters – such as commas or tabs – to indicate where you want to divide the text into columns. Use paragraph marks to indicate where you want to begin a new row. For example, in a list with two words on a line, insert a comma or a tab after the first word to create a two-column table.
2. Select the text that you want to convert.
3. On the Table menu, click on Convert, and then click Text to Table.
4. In the Convert Text to Table dialog box (see below), under Separate text at, click the option for the separator character that is in your text.
5. In the Number of columns box, check the number of columns.
6. If you don’t see the number of columns that you expect, you may be missing a separator character in one or more lines of text.
7. Select any other options that you want.
