If you want to view Oracle tables from Access you have to go to "File->Obtain extern data-->link tables" and in type of file you have to put ODBC. When you do this , Access ask you wich driver use and you have to indicate Oracle. Then you have to set the access database (service, user,password,...) and the tables to link. The names of the submenus can be different because i have done a traduccion to English. Excuse me if someone has a bad traduccion.
