  Have a look at the Split function. This seems to do what you want:
  
  lineArray = Split(theTable.Cell(caseStartRow, 2).Range.Text, Chr$(13))

  Here's an example of code that will do this:

  Option Explicit

  Public Sub main()
  Dim strCellText As String
  Dim strCellTextLines As New Collection
  Dim vv As Variant
  
  strCellText = ThisDocument.Tables(1).Cell(1, 1).Range.Text
  Set strCellTextLines = ParseLines(strCellText)
  MsgBox "Lines of text found = " & CStr(strCellTextLines.Count)
  
  For Each vv In strCellTextLines
  MsgBox vv
  Next vv
  
  Set strCellTextLines = Nothing
  End Sub

  Private Function ParseLines(tStr As String) As Collection
  Dim tColl As New Collection, tptr As Integer, tlastptr As Integer, tCurrStr As String
  tlastptr = 1

  With tColl
  Do
  tptr = InStr(tlastptr, tStr, Chr(13))
  If tptr = 0 Then Exit Do

  tCurrStr = Mid(tStr, tlastptr, tptr - tlastptr)
  tColl.Add tCurrStr

  tlastptr = tptr + 1
  Loop
  End With

  Set ParseLines = tColl
  End Function
