Hi, I am new to Informatica, What is a flat file and how to
use flat file in infomratica please help me.
Answer Posted / nagesh
Actually, as said we import data into informatica from
Relational Database sources as well as from Flat File
sources.
A Flat file is a Text file having the data in a different
manner than in the Table.
The data in a Flat file(can be MS Word Doc or Notepad or
any text doc) will be in the form of Fixed width or
Delimited.
Eg of Flatfile
Barak Obama,17,Washington DC,USA OR
01000ScrewDriver009.50{This is fixed
01001Hammer012.95 { width file
