Secondary calendars have the sharing option in properties, but I can not find
a way to get into another person's secondary calendar that has the sharing
rights enabled.  Is there a way to do this that I am missing.

To access a shared folder that isn't one of the folders listed on the File | Open | Other User's Folder dialog, the mailbox owner needs to grant "folder visible" permission to the root of the mailbox and any other parent folders of the shared folder, as well as appropriate permission -- at least Reviewer -- on the shared folder itself.

The user who needs access then goes into Tools | E-mail Accounts or Tools | Services (depending on the Outlook version), brings up the properties for the Exchange Server service, and on the Advanced tab, adds the mailbox.

For more information on folder permissions, with how-to screen shots, see http://www.howto-outlook.com/howto/permissions.htm and http://office.microsoft.com/assistance/preview.aspx?AssetID=HA011134811033

So the only way to view subfolders is to add someone's mailbox.  Is that
correct?

Yes, that's correct in versions before Outlook 2007.
