I'll believe you.

if beginRange == 0 || "some condition so it prints every 1000 records" {

I think you need the modulo (%) operator. This gives the remainder of an integer division, which will, of course be zero every n records when you modulo by n. For example 25 % 25 == 0, 50 % 25 == 0, 51 % 25 == 1 and so on.
