    Combo box

    Hello, I have 3 combo boxes with the same Engineers names in them from a table called Engineers. However I have a Lead Engineer and Backup 1 Engineer and Backup 2 Engineer. Is there a way I can say if a user selects a name called John B as a Lead Engineer, that it is not allowed to be the same in the Backup 1 or Backup 2. All 3 have to different names. Cant have the same name in any of the 3.

    Thank You
    Mark
