COT Lisp combines columns

I'm having trouble converting a table created by lines into a table. The COT Lisp merges certain columns into one another, and I'm not sure why. The lines are all connected and there is no overlapping.

 

Could someone tell me why this may be happening?

 

TIA

There are other ways for me I read the column of text values sorting on X & Y so make a list of rows.

 

I think there is a problem here where the Trunking is taking up 3 rows. The blank text can be allowed for. Same for END BRACKET and so on. *12 another issue. 

 

In a table you can merge cells to get around the single item for multi cells. I think a difficult task more than likely needs a custom code.

Ok the better way may be to go back a step how is the table made is it from other code ? 

So rather than lines and text make a table.
