Oracle sqldeveloper starting version 4.1 require java 8 which remove jdbc-odbc bridge necessary for the program to connect Microsoft access database. sqldeveloper 4.0 with java 7 works. reference: https://community.oracle.com/thread/3758769 https://community.oracle.com/thread/3726855

From access to link to a server database you use the external data tab, and from that tab choose ODBC database.

So there never was some “new” connection button or tab, but only that of using the ODBC connection manager.
