We can not use flatfile directely in your project but you can use it by creating it as a an object just like create object("scripting.file system object")

flat files are simply like a notepad  fiel with an extension filename.db   these files are created[ application specific ]  by an application when an backend like oracle , sqlserver are not used .the data stored in the files are sequential in order and data retrieval is sequencial order. time consuming if ample of data is stored.mostly  small organisation's application use this where they cant afford  sql ,sqlserver etc
