XPathNodeIterator rows = Group.Select("/my:myFields/my:AnalysisGroup/my:AnalysisTable", NamespaceManager);

//Loop to move the cursor to last row

for (int counter = 0; counter < rows.Count; counter++, rows.MoveNext()) ;

//clone the last row and insert it after that

rows.Current.Clone();

rows.Current.InsertAfter(rows.Current);

//move the cursor to the last row

<script language="JavaScript">
//Controls which Web Part or zone to print
var WebPartElementID = "WebPartZone1";

//Function to print Web Part
function PrintWebPart()
{
var bolWebPartFound = false;
if (document.getElementById != null)
{
//Create html to print in new window
var PrintingHTML = '<HTML>\n<HEAD>\n';
//Take data from Head Tag
if (document.getElementsByTagName != null)
{
var prButton = document.getElementById('printButton');
prButton.style.display = 'none';
var HeadData= document.getElementsByTagName("HEAD");
if (HeadData.length > 0)
PrintingHTML += HeadData[0].innerHTML;
}
PrintingHTML += '\n</HEAD>\n<BODY>\n';
var WebPartData = document.getElementById(WebPartElementID);
if (WebPartData != null)
{
PrintingHTML += WebPartData.innerHTML;
bolWebPartFound = true;
}

{
bolWebPartFound = false;
alert ('Cannot Find Web Part');

PrintingWindow.document.open();
PrintingWindow.document.write(PrintingHTML);
