Is there a way to search through the content of csv?

I would like to search through content of .csv files. Why is it impossible? I thought .csv are just text files. Are there any plans that dropbox allows this feature in the near future?

Hi Gregory.

Yes, I'm saying about API v2 /search.

My clients has two files formats: .pdf and .csv and we need to search thought its contents. Now we need to duplicate csv's by changing it to .txt format to have an ability to search its contents.

Thanks for your response
