the "Flat file". That flat file is in the form of text file
or excel format.If the file is in the form of text format
we can create the ".txt" file ("ABC.txt")and in the form of
excel ".xls" file is created. flat file for dos and .xls
file for IBM.
The converted file (.txt/.xls)is either upload or download.
