If you have Word 2000 or above, use the "2 pages per sheet" option in Page
Setup instead of columns to create your side-by-side pages; then you can use
columns (or any other page layout) on either page.

If Suzanne's suggestion does not work for you, create one larger table and
hide the borders of the unwanted centre column.

Or insert two text boxes or frames containing the tables. But I would much
prefer to go with "2 pages per sheet" because it allows you to treat the
half sheet just the same as if it were a real page.
