Select_multiple_from_file but exclude answer from select_one_from_file

Support
1

Suppose I have a select_one_from_file question:
Question 1: What country are you living now?

Then I have a follow up select_multiple_from_file question:
Question 2: What other countries have you lived previously?

I want to ask for help with the following.

  1. Is it possible in xlsForm to exclude from the choices in question 2 the answer in question 1?
  2. How do we check that all responses in question 2 does not contain what was answered in question 1? or How do we detect, if ever it happens, that the answer to question 1 is included in the replies to question 2?

Thanks for the help

There is a search() function that you can use in a csv to limit what can be displayed in the form. The syntax looks like this
search('csv_file','search_method','column_to_search_for',${search_string})

search_method can be startswith, endswith, contains, and matches.

In my first post, I asked for help regarding this question:
Is it possible in xlsForm to exclude from the choices in question 2 the answer in question 1?

This question can be easily answered if the search() function has a search method similar to "does not contain" or "does not match"

So if my reply to Question 1 (What country are you living now) is Japan which is saved in variable ${country_now}

Then in countries.csv I have the following
Code, Name
Jpn, Japan
Ind, Indonesia
Chn, China
Phi, Philippines
Mal, Malaysia

I can use a search function like search('countries', 'not_match', 'Code', ${country_now}) so that what are displayed in the choices does not include Japan.

I wonder if what I described can be done in XLSForm

Thanks
