Downloading a large file in a different format
Hi there,
Is it possible to download a file in a different format? I.e. it has been uploaded as a .csv, but I need to download it in a .txt format in order to download all the information within the document.
Thanks in advance.
No, Dropbox doesn't covert files like that. That being said, a CSV file IS a plain text file, just with a CSV file extension. Download the file and change the .csv extension to .txt and you can open the file in your favorite text editor.
