Can can front-end Oracle with many tools from Oracle's own Internet Developer Suite (Forms and Reports) to MS Access, VB, Java, XML, HTML-JavaScript, Crystal/Seagate Reports, Cognos, Brio, etc.

A good front-end must have coding and anyone with half an interest in their employment future should be looking for any opportunity to learn some. But if the point is just to create a dumb form and do everything manually Oracle Forms will fit the bill just as well as Access. The difference is that Oracle Forms will also allow you to create a truly elegant full-featured front-end.
