Andy - you're a life saver! That would have probably taken me AGES to find out and since my paper is due in about 5 hours and I just found out they need it in a two column layout now you have probably saved my paper!
Yes indeed I always wonder how to do that. Thanks for your great tips.
I've tried using the
\begin{figure*}
\end{figure*}
figure definition you suggest but the large image is being generated at the end of my document rather then where I've defined it. It does this regardless of the place I set in the [] brackets. For example
\begin{figure*}[ht!]
\end{figure*}
Still puts the figure on the last page.
Any ideas?

First, many thanks to Andy!
The multicol package may solve the problem but if you are using IEEE or other classes in your latex file, you could lose the correct format, such as the abstract format, etc.
After a lot of efforts, I think and would recommend to use Andy's idea and to put the big figure or table in an appropriate location, at a page earlier than the page, so that the figure or table could appear at your desired location. Hope it will help.
