Access front as front end for oracle

Hello all,

I'm looking for the pro's and con's for an MS Access Application which
has an Oracle backend (Oracle Express).
Especially how it is about the autocommit ( I believe it is off ), the
multi user security and the speed of the application.

I know Oracle is very good with multiple users but how is it when I
use MS Access as Frontend.
Is it still good, with the ODBC Connection and the linked tables?

Very much thanks in advance!

Kind regards
SePp
