How many rows are we talking about?
Are the table structures going to be identicle?
Are you able to take the database offline while making the move?

there is an oracle tool that do this.

if you don't find that.

you can do an odbc connection from access to oracle and then insert your data
from access to oracle

but first check for the oracle tool it's a good tool and it works fine

hi palani,
to transfer tables fom access try dis

convert the access tables into text files
and create a ctl file for that,in that ctl file u have to menssion in oracle in which table u want to dump.
for that u have to create a strucure in in oracle.
after that in cmd promt
type......

sqlldr scott\tiger@<ho stname> <path of ctl file with extension>
dis will solve ur problem
example of ctl file.......type in notepad and save it as .ctl

load data
infile 'f:\rc.txt'
insert into table alarmtype
fields terminated by ','
(CardNo,Enabled ,CardID,Staff,H older,Departmen tNo,PositionNam e,PIN,
