The tools listed above may be apporpriate. You did not indicate what type of
application you intend to create the graphical interface for. Is it light
transaction processing, heavy updating, decision support, etc.

I work for a company called Cognos Inc. We supply serveral tools to allow
you to build C/S applications accessing Oracle via SQL*NET. I would recommend
you determine your needs and then have each vendor respond. A complex prototype
is best to truely test each solution.
