|You can't. The way I handle this situation is to put in a blank page

|page and send it through the printer a second time to put the table

|Another idea.  Build the table in a program like MacDraw, rotate it
|90 degrees, and then bring it in as a graphic on the page in question.

Another idea, which should give you correct page numbers without double-feeding
any sheets. 

Maintain several documents, and use the "Next File" feature to put them 
together during printing.  You'd have something like this:

File#1 [title page, TOC, intro, some of chapter 1]
File#2 [one page, a landscape table]
File#3 [more of chapter 1]
File#4 [two pages, two landscape table]
File#5 [the rest of Chapter 1, blah blah blah]
...and so on...

Youw wouldn't have to split it up like this until you were doing your final'
formatting.
