Hi I am trying to use the browse tool to input a flat file however, it's giving me an error invalid file format

 

If I convert it to a .txt file it works, is there a way where i do not need to convert the flat file to a .txt file and still be able to read it

Not enough information.  Can you show us screenshots of what you're trying to do, including tool configuration?

Within the input menu for the file you can set to csv remove the , as the separator value, give that a try?
