I'm probably not explaining this correctly so please forgive me.

If you click on the contacts button\whatever it's called, on the left
pane then My Contacts, Other Contacts and Current View is listed. Under
My Contacts that is where Contacts, Clients, Judges, Attorneys and Cases
are listed. It's like there are 5 contact lists. However I only
imported the Contacts portion of the PST.

The thing is I'm not really a Outlook/Exchange person so I'm not going
to know all of Outlook's terminology and such and I think that's what is
hampering me in my description of the problem

You need to look more closely. Categories are part of the data stored on individual items. The left navigation pane shows folders, but it's not clear from your description whether these are in her mailbox. Look in the Folder List. You will also need to work with the Folder List to complete the necessary steps if they are in the mailbox. Specifically, 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.

These are all separate contacts folders? In an Exchange mailbox?

I recently imported a custom Contacts list from the users previous
employer. I also shared the users contacts so that their secretary can
add and edit those contacts.

However the secretary can't view her custom contacts. The secretary can
view the Contacts listing but nothing that was customized.

Example: the user has 5 contact lists named;

-Clients
-Judges
-Attorneys
-Cases

None of the above contacts are viewable for the secretary. The
secretary can only view/add/edit the main 'Contacts'.

Any ideas on what steps I might have missed?
