read two columns in Excel using python - python-2.7

Question

I want to write a python script which should read xlsx file and based on value of column X, it should write/append file with the value of column Z.
Sample data:
Column A Column X Column Y Column Z
123 abc test value 1
124 xyz test value 2
125 xyz test value 3
126 abc test value 4
If value in Column X = abc then it should create a file (if not existing already) in some path with name abc.txt and insert the value of column Z in abc.txt file, likewise if Column X = xyz then it should create a file in same path with xyz.txt and insert the value of column Z in xyz.txt file.
from openpyxl import load_workbook
wb = load_workbook('filename.xlsm')
ws = wb.active
for cell in ws.columns[9]: #here column 9 is value is what i am testing which is Column X of my example.
if cell.value == "abc":
print ws.cell(column=12).value #this is not working and i dont know how to read corresponding value of another column
Please suggest what could be done.
Thank you.

Change
print ws.cell(column=12).value
By:
print ws.columns[col][row].value
in your case:
print ws.columns[12-1][cell.row-1].value
Note that if you use this indexation method cols and rows start with index 0. This is why I'm doing cell.row-1, so take it into account when you address your column, if your 12 starts counting from 1 you'll have to address to 11.
Alternatively you can access to your information cell like this: ws.cell(row = cell.row, column = 12).value. Note in this case cols and rows start at 1.
