I don't know if you can load the first 100 records, but you could load the last 100 by setting the "skip" value to the total - 100.

Oracle 8.1.6.3 on Sun 2.6.

I have tried reviewing the docs, but I didn't see anything that answered the
question. Is it possible to limit the number of records being loaded? We
have a file that has records in the 6 digit range. I'd like to test the controlfile, but I don't want to load the whole file. Is there a way to tell loader to only load, say the 1st 100 records?
