Add a popup box that asks for a column delimiter. Put each bit of text in a separate column. So for example if there's raw data that looks like:

Alpha: $10m
Beta: $12m
Gamma: $5m

The user would select a colon as the delimiter, and that would create a 2-column, 3-row table. Thank you.

I have one problem with this macro -- it modifies the entire page.  For me that's a problem because I often have multiple people editing sections of the page.  OneNote marks those sections with their initials.  

When I run this macro, I then "own" all of the page; the information for other users editing page sections is lost.

works like a charm but I would appreciate a version able to conserve the tags !
