Default Outlook Form

I am trying to make some changes on a form in Outlook. I want to add a CC
box that will contain two names that auto populate when the form opens. Is
this possible?

thank you

Yes, but the details would depend on just where this "auto populate" information is supposed to come from. Whether it's a good idea is a completely different issue, one that depends on the purpose and audience for this form.

The information that I need to auto populate would be from the global
directory. I have a CC field and when type in the names they appear but I
just can't get them to stay.

I need the information to remain on the form at all times because anytime
this form is used those people need to be notified. So I thought instead of
having the user add them to the form, and at the risk of them forgetting,
there would be a way for them to automatically be CC when the form goes out.

We still need more information. Whether this is going to be practical depends on the audience -- all internal? some external? -- your mail environment, and if it's Exchange, whether you can publish a form to the Organizational Forms library.
