Hello, I am using Word 2016 as part of Office 365. I need a little bit of help with tables.




I want to create a two-column table, based on the list below. As you can see, the text and dates are separated by a dash (with a space in front of the date, and one after it).


I switched the option to commas for previous text. But in this text, there are commas, so that might add a column I don't need.


So, I'd like to use the ( - ) as the separator.
I'm having trouble doing that. Here are my steps:


1. Highlight the text.
2. Go into Insert, and select Convert Text to Table.
3. When the Convert Text to Table dialog box appears, I go to the bottom, where it says Separate Text At. I select Other.



The problem is this: I cannot enter anything at all in that box. Nothing.
I'm pretty sure there was a dash in there, when I first used Word to convert text to a table. But I think I cleared the box out. When I tried to put something else in its place, I was unable to. I haven't been able to enter anything in that box.


What am I doing wrong? How do I get a dash entered into that box? Thank you! T. Hulot
