Can I use two dropdownlists with a DetailsView Control to insert new record

Question

I don't think this question has been asked before (or at least I couldn't find a similar question), if so my apologies.

I have a asp.net web page I am building that has two dropdownlists bound to two different object data sources. The first ddl displays a list of customer names and once selected the second ddl list displays the product names that the customer has purchased. The page is designed to insert an "incident" record so that once the customer and product is chosen I like to use a detailview (with default mode set to INSERT and bound to a third object data source (incidents table)) to create a new record.

My question then, is it possible to somehow grab the values from the two ddl's and have those values used along with the detailsview insertitem templates to insert a new record?

If you are new web developer like me then the following links can help you correct error in the process of putting the ddl's into the insertitem templates, in case your process has error. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1jdrRoqJ6w
