I have setup subfolders under contacts on one computer and want to share that
subfolder with others.  i have set permissions BUT the others can ONLY see
the main contacts folder.  How can they see the subfolder?

We use exchange server.  i went to the host computer and setup subfolders
under the contacts folder and setup contacts in that folder.  I set
permissions to other users to review the contacts folder on my computer.  
When they open outlook and ask to view others folders and enter my login name
and select contacts, they can ONLY see the main contact folder NOT the
subfolders.  I want them to see the subfolders as well.  We use Outlook 2003
version with microsoft exchange server.

Then why did you not post to an Exchange group? You should.

You have to give them permission to see the subfolders.  They need "Folder
Visible" permission on the mailbox and all parent folders and then the
proper permission to the subfolder itself.
