There are two ways to do this:
1) Export the Access table into a tab-delimited ASCII file. Then use
SQL*Loader to load the data into your existing Oracle tables. You will have
to set up the SQL*Loader control files, which is documented in the
"Oracle Utilities Guide" book, among other 3rd-party books.
2) Set up an ODBC connection between Access and Oracle. Then, you can cut and
paste or run an update query in Access.
Best of luck!
