Does every record in the flat file have the same layout, or are there different record types?
If the former, you could load the individual "table definitions" into your CFF stage, selecting only those columns that describe the actual data, then modify the data levels.
Alternately, you may need to create a CFD that actually describes what's in the flat file, and import that.
