Hello,
I have a need to integrate salesforce with a desktop based application. Basically, I need to load data from this application into SFDC.
What options/tools we have for this? Please advise. How can I achieve this?

If your requirement is just in load the data one time you can use one of the many tools. Salesfoce has its own data loader tool called "Apex Data Loader". You may want to start with viewing this YouTube to understand how it works - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjuFthPE3jY and you can also refer to the data loader use guide at URL https://help.salesforce.com/help/pdfs/en/salesforce_data_loader.pdf
Do note that is just one of many tools. There are other tools like "Salesforce Import Wizard", Dataloader.io (http://dataloader.io/), Informatica Data Loader, JitterBit, etc. etc. You can Google for each of these terms and find more information.
