That will be Fine Grained Auditing (FGA) not, Access. Fine grained Access
Control (FGAC) or Virtual Private Database (VPD) provide a view of the table
that the user is authorized to access, even for updates, inserts and
deletes. You want more an audit mechanism.

However, FGA is bit of an overkill in your case. It's typically the only
solution for auditing the seelct statements. For changes
(insert/update/delete), you could employ the regular auditing (AUDIT). that
will tell you who changed something, but not what. To see the what, you
could use log miner to unearth those statements with the data.

If you do use FGA, use it alongwith the Flashback Queries to findout the
value of the columns before the change. And note, FGA is available only in
9i; so if you are using 8i, the better option is to use a simple user
written trigger to populate an audit table.
