How do I put two tables side by side on one page?

This works well if the rows in both tables are parallel. Otherwise, you can
either "float" one table (by wrapping in Word 2000 and above or by putting
it in a frame in earlier versions) or (best approach, I think), use two
newspaper-style columns with a column break (if necessary) between tables.

You could also use a large three-column, one-row table (center cell left
empty) and nest tables in the left and right cell, but nested tables are so
iffy (especially wrt backward compatibility) that I wouldn't recommend this.
