Dean,
    When I needed create a sideways (landscape) table in a portrait-oriented
document (my Ph.D. thesis), I used the package "rotating" with the
"beginsidewaystable" or "beginsidewaysfigure" environments.  Works perfectly, so
long as I am interested in using the -whole- page, which I am.

    By the way,  does anyone know why my LaTeX installation should -refuse- to
generate landscape output when I use the command:

            \documentclass[12pt, twocolumn, landscape]{article}

I can't get it to work for the life of me, and I'm stumped.
