Unhappy Help on Extracting Header Outline Level Of Tracked Changes to New Document

I am desperate for help on how to extract outline levels of a section being tracked for changes.

I would like to extract the following:

Currently my code looks like this:

'Macro created 2007 by Lene Fredborg, DocTools -
'The macro creates a new document
'and extracts insertions and deletions
'marked as tracked changes from the active document
'NOTE: Other types of changes are skipped
'(e.g. formatting changes or inserted/deleted footnotes and endnotes)
'Only insertions and deletions in the main body of the document will be extracted
'The document will also include metadata
'Inserted text will be applied black font color
'Deleted text will be applied red font color

'Minor adjustments are made to the styles used
'You may need to change the style settings and table layout to fit your needs
'=========================

Code:
Dim oDoc As Document
    Dim oNewDoc As Document
    Dim oTable As Table
    Dim oRow As Row
    Dim oCol As Column
    Dim oRange As Range
    Dim oRevision As Revision
    Dim strText As String
    Dim n As Long
    Dim i As Long
    Dim Title As String

    Title = "Extract Tracked Changes to New Document"
    n = 0 'use to count extracted changes

    Set oDoc = ActiveDocument

    If oDoc.Revisions.Count = 0 Then
        MsgBox "The active document contains no tracked changes.", vbOKOnly, Title
        GoTo ExitHere
    Else
        'Stop if user does not click Yes
        If MsgBox("Do  you want to extract tracked changes to a new document?" & vbCr & vbCr & _
                "NOTE: Only insertions and deletions will be included. " & _
                "All other types of changes will be skipped.", _
                vbYesNo + vbQuestion, Title) <> vbYes Then

    'Get info from each tracked change (insertion/deletion) from oDoc and insert in table
    For Each oRevision In oDoc.Revisions
        Select Case oRevision.Type
            'Only include insertions and deletions

                'In case of footnote/endnote references (appear as Chr(2)),

                    'Get the changed text

                   Loop
                End With
                'Add 1 to counter
                n = n + 1
                'Add row to table

                'Insert data in cells in oRow
                With oRow
                    'Page number
                    .Cells(1).Range.Text = _
                        oRevision.Range.Information(wdActiveEndPageNumber)

                    'Line number - start of revision

                        oRevision.Range.Information(wdFirstCharacterLineNumber)

                    'Type of revision

                        .Cells(3).Range.Text = "Inserted"
                        'Apply automatic color (black on white)
                        oRow.Range.Font.Color = wdColorAutomatic
                    Else
                        .Cells(3).Range.Text = "Deleted"
                        'Apply red color
                        oRow.Range.Font.Color = wdColorRed
                    End If

                    'The inserted/deleted text
                    .Cells(4).Range.Text = strText

                    'The author
                    .Cells(5).Range.Text = oRevision.Author

                    'The revision date
                    .Cells(6).Range.Text = Format(oRevision.Date, "mm-dd-yyyy")
                End With
        End Select
    Next oRevision

    'If no insertions/deletions were found, show message and close oNewDoc
    If n = 0 Then
        MsgBox "No insertions or deletions were found.", vbOKOnly, Title
        oNewDoc.Close savechanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges
        GoTo ExitHere
    End If

    'Apply bold formatting and heading format to row 1
    With oTable.Rows(1)
        .Range.Font.Bold = True
        .HeadingFormat = True
    End With

    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    Application.ScreenRefresh

    oNewDoc.Activate
    MsgBox n & " tracked changed have been extracted. " & _
        "Finished creating document.", vbOKOnly, Title

ExitHere:
    Set oDoc = Nothing
    Set oNewDoc = Nothing
    Set oTable = Nothing
    Set oRow = Nothing
    Set oRange = Nothing

End Sub


Now instead of the line number, I would like to extract the header outline level. The proposed output would be like this:
Proposed Output of Main Document.docx

Here is the main document for testing with the macro enabled:
Main Document.docm

Thank you so much for your help on this. I really need your expertise on this one!
