parse csv file/monitor it for specified criteria/email attach an audio file if matches

I have a software program that logs data to a csv file and makes .wav files of audio recordings. It is consistently adding new data to the csv file and creating more .wav files.
I'm looking for someone to code this...
I want a program to "parse" or monitor the csv file for particular "matches". If there is a match, I want to be e-mailed with a copy of the wav file for that particular match. I want the subject of the e-mail to contain a custom header based on the "match". The program I want coded would continue to monitor the constantly updating csv file and continue to do the above actions if & when there are criteria matches based on my criteria list...
Detailed example:
Here is a concept of the data in the csv file:
Date,Time,Reading 1,Reading 2,Wav File
10-17-2013,12:22:11 PM,DIGI,754,D:\Users\[login to view URL]
10-17-2013,12:22:36 PM,DIGI,759,
10-17-2013,12:55:29 PM,DIGI,753,D:\Users\[login to view URL]
10-17-2013,12:55:57 PM,DIGI,749,
10-17-2013,12:58:41 PM,DIGI,*55,D:\Users\[login to view URL]
10-17-2013,1:20:12 PM,DIGI,754,D:\Users\[login to view URL]
10-17-2013,2:45:24 PM,DIGI,7754,D:\Users\[login to view URL]
10-17-2013,2:58:35 PM,DIGI,757,D:\Users\[login to view URL]
10-17-2013,2:58:47 PM,DIGI,758,
10-17-2013,2:59:19 PM,DIGI,728,
10-17-2013,3:06:04 PM,DIGI,*55,D:\Users\[login to view URL]
The Reading 1 and Reading 2 columns specify the type of output, you will notice above that some lines do not have a wav file associated.. that is because the audio output from that line is contained in the .wav file above that (most recent).. example DIGI,728 at 2:59:19pm has an audio file produced at 2:58:35pm ([login to view URL]).... in essence, if there is a line in the csv file that doesnt show the location of the .wav file - i need to get emailed a copy of the .wav file that was most recently created & logged...
Example situation of how i want the program to work...
I want to be emailed a wav file if a 'DIGI 749' is logged.. I want the subject of the e-mail to be "Unit 749!", the attachment of the e-mail would be: [login to view URL] because that is the corresponding audio file in the csv example above..
I also want to be able to match criteria with a wildcard.. so I can create a criteria match for "75*" and it will find DIGI 759 and DIGI 758... and e-mail each of their respective audio files..
I don't really care how this is coded..i just want to run this in Windows 7.. I also have one other concern.. I noticed I can't open the csv file in certain applications while my existing program is running.. So whatever you use to code this request, it must just "check" the csv file every 15 seconds (or so) but my original program must still be able to write data to the csv file...
