Hi,

There's a range of options to select from here. If you know your flat files are going to be simple, you could just write some code to loop through each line in the file and use a StringTokenizer to parse each column based on the delimiter. At that point, simply do whatever you want with the resulting tokens.

In the mid-range, there are a few free packages available to help with this sort of parsing. I know James Cicenia mentioned Stephen Ostermiller's parser:

On the high-end, if you want to manipulate Excel-formatted documents, there's Jakarta POI:
