I am trying to take some data in file that looks like this
command colnum_1 columnum_2
and look for the command and then cange the value in the collum(word)
number indicated. I am under
the impression I need enumerate but I am not sure what to do with it
any help would be nice.

Rather confusing code there and non-functional.
You never close your file handles, when finished with a file use the
..close() method
sys.argv[0] <-- the first element is the name of your .py file and
not
the first argument you supply.
When iterating over a list like csoundrows you don't need to do
for row in csoundrows:
if ... in csoundrow[row]: # This will try to use 'row' as an
index
but rather
if ... in row:
Now, this is how I intepretted your question.
