Indeed, I missed it.

However, it works for me. However, when converting to table (in Word), you have to tell it to use tabs as delimiters. In other words, just pressing the "Table" button may not work, because the default delimiter is something else. Giving the commands through the menu does, if you select Tab as delimiter. The idea is to have level 2 items in column #2.
