Santosh - Yes, you can create an Oracle table, have MS Access link to that table (ODBC) and create a Access form for the user to enter data which will be stored in Oracle. This is will look good to your user and be pretty easy for you to create.

The first question I would have is where is the data coming from and how is it being written. If the data is flat ASCII text, and is from a batch process SQL*Loader or an external table (9i V2) would be appropriate. There are also third party tools available to do the job, Data Junction comes to mind. The only other option would be a custom process. I've done all of the above. SQL*Loader has some limitations that may not make it useful. Data Junction has similar but not identical problems. Custom created processes are the most flexible but can take a while to create depending on what your trying to do. And if the data isn't ASCII text your most likely into custom.
