Ah ok, so you're using the more advanced features of ArcSDE.
My reference to GeoDatabase was the ArcSDE specific stuff (not the file
format) where it puts all the data in a certain relational structure etc in
the Oracle database and you have to use ArcSDE to read it etc. Because we
have lots of different GIS systems reading our Oracle database we can't do
that so have a flat database structure.
Doesn't sound like getting rid of ArcSDE would be as easy for you.
