The title says it all!!!!

The other day I was asked what a flat file was.   Being denied all access
to Macs for the whole of my life, I had to embarrass myself and confess
that I didn't know.   Please help me restore my pride by providing me
with enough information to impress (but not confuse) anyone.

Thanks in advance,
