Having copied your example to a document (and ensured that the line end characters are page breaks and not line breaks - which is the result of pasting from here) you can certainly convert text to a table using the hyphen character. Did you check the box for 'Other' character?


You will have to select each resulting column in turn then CTRL+E CTRL+L to clear the leading and trailing spaces.
