Can anybody point me in the right direction for using a flat file to feed Crystal Reports?

If I understand correctly, a flat file is basically a text file that contains your data?
Whether I understand correctly or not, this may help you...
Crystal Data Objects (CDO) - You populate an array with your data and pass the array to Crystal in the same way you would pass a recordset.
Look at my post here for an explanation of how to use CDO:

It contains the VB code you need as well as a link to Crystals website to an article that tells you how to setup the report.
Hope that helps!
