Look at appadmin.py around line 5824.  The file is in yourapp/controllers.

Basically:

   get query
   set headers # it does 'Content-disposition' as well as 'Content-Type'
   return str(db(query, filters).select())

You may not want the 'Content-disposition' header -- it's setting 
attachment and filename.

If you're doing an existing csv file, rather than query results, then you 
need to read the file and either stringify it or stream it.

But CSV is an ugly thing to show to a user; if the user needs query results 
in a table, then either SQLTABLE or SQLFORM.grid could be used, and I think 
the latter could also be used for a file you read.
