Hi,

we are using client 2003, exchange server 2003
I know how to share and access the main calender in Microsoft outlook
client. I would set the permissions and then the user I gave permission to,
would go on their client and click on File --- Open--- Otherusersfolders type
in my name and the and choose calendar from the drop down box and be able to
open up the calendar. However, i have created a subcalendar, i have assigned
the permissions to the calendar; how does the person i gave permission to
open up that calendar through their client because their is no option for a
subcalendar.

thanks in advance

To provide access to 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
