Not the usual landscape/longtable problem... I think!!
juani
concerned that the only method will be of many key strokes and multiple
tables... but I will check none the less.
I have a table that is 19x40, the height is fine but width is way too
big. So I threw it in a sidewaystable environment, so now instead of
going off the side of the page it goes out the top of the page. Next I
used the landscape/longtable mix and still the same result, although
the table now starts snuggly in the bottom left corner of the page, the
table still goes out of the top of the page. Through all this the
height of the table is fine, in landscape mode it fits across the page
nicely.
Obviously longtable is for cases where the table has too many rows, but
is it possible to get it to work on a table in landscape with too many
columns??? So that the stuff off the top of the page starts on the next
page at the bottom. Is there some fix, rather than me transposing the
matrix in the text and then changing the table accordingly??
Any help appreciated.

questions building on your message. In particular, is there a way to
shrink wide Latex tables into one page? If not, is there a way to have
several tables in eps format so that one can then shrink them and
include them one next to the other, so that they look like a wide table
that has been shrinked into a page? I have in mind something like what
Goosens, Mittelback and Samarin have on Table 5.7, page 127 of their
"The Latex Companion". Thank you. Mario.

\small \begin{tabular}...
\footnotesize \begin{tabular} ...
\tiny ....
From graphicx:
\resizebox{<width>}{!}{\begin{tabular}...\end{tabular}}
\scalebox ...
\rotatebox ...

I would guess that it had been made from a 6 page document with the
help of psnup or pstops.
And yes: you can make eps from parts of your document. Look at the
preview package, at pst-pdf (http://www.perce.de/LaTeX/pst-pdf), at the
documentation of dvips (Option -E). If you are using pdfTeX you can
also import single pages or part of pages from a pdf-document by using
the options page= and viewport/clip of \includegraphics or with the
help of pdfpages.
