Shouldn't that be:   <xsl:for-each select="Entity[position()  - 1 mod
1000 = 0]">  ?  B/c as coded, the first 'mod' to == 0 would be node
1000.  What if you only have 999 nodes?  You seem to be "triggering"
off the last node in a group and you want to "trigger" off the FIRST
node in a group.  Right?  You could potentially drop all nodes in the
last group.  Right?

Recognizing the caveat of position()=1 of course.
