A CSV file is a text file and can be (forced) opened with Notepad type editor.
Copy and paste into the Windows search


AFAIK Windows Search will not search inside EPUB and Kindle formats, and PDFs really need an 'advanced' IFilter - IMO the one from Tracker is best (least troublesome).

OSX Spotlight will search in just about everything

@taratears - handy little no install Windows program for viewing csv files ==>> CSVFileView - CSV file viewer and converter
