Automatically Convert Text to Table with unique character as deliminator

I have just tried this but the results don't look good.... because the report is a mixture of worded paragraphs and tables that may have 3 columns or up to 7 columns, selecting all of the document and using text to table the whole document including the sentences will then have 7 columns.

What I need to be able to do is to automatically select either individual lines and convert them to tables or to be able to make an automatic selection of certain parts of the document and convert this to a table.

I have thought about using bookmarks in the document and then automatically selecting the text between the bookmarks but I could not figure this out.

The report may contain 4 pages or 50 pages depending on the size of the job but there are always certain headers or words that are consistent between all reports which I can use to find / replace or format.

Thanks
