What Is a Flat File Schema?
What Is a Flat File Dictionary?
You can use the flat file features to translate documents into and from flat file formats. To set up the translation, you use a flat file schema to define how to identify individual records within a flat file and what data is contained in each of those records. You can also create a flat file dictionary to contain the flat file elements (records, composites, fields) that you want to make available for use in all flat file schemas.
