Sometime in 2011 or 2012 Intuit upgraded QuickBooks, replacing its flat file system with SQL Anywhere from Sybase iAnywhere, allowing QuickBooks to store data in a relational database format.

Database file is one that is stored on a server and it is in the format that the database needs to read it. It is also stored in the database catalog. A flat file is one that is dumped from a database to import or export into another database or program. A flat file is fields of data separated by delimiters, which keep the fields separated for export/import.

Usually, that is using a "load" file to import data into a database. That can be a flat, delimited file or other formats. The type of format used depends on the database. My database has data upload batch jobs scheduled daily.
flat file
A flat file is in a list format (containing only one table) while databases uses different tables to store data. It is easier and faster to locate data in a database than in a flat file.
A database in which ALL the data is stored in a single table is known as a flat-file database. This type of database lacks the relational structure found in more traditional databases that use multiple tables to store and organize data. Flat-file databases are simple but may limit the ability to efficiently query and manage data.
In database management, a flat file is one that holds all the information in a single table.By contrast, a relational database has two or more tables having a defined relationship to each other.A flat file is not related to any other table.ExamplesFlat fileYou could keep details of a DVD collection in a flat file. Some of the fields might be:titledate purchasedlengthyear issuedRelational databaseA retail business might have a database with three tables:products [one record for each type of item for sale]customersproducts&customers [each sale constitutes a record in this table. The table is related (linked) to each of the other two tables]Tables and files"Table" is a database term, "file" a computer term. Some database management programs make each table into a separate file. Others store all the tables in a single file.
