I have created 3 subfolders that I want to share with coworkers. How do I do
this? It seems that they only have access to my default calendar. I am on a
microsoft exchange server.

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/assistan...HA011134811033

I have done all this and it's not working. I've been working on trying to
share these calendars for a couple hours today alone. No matter what I've
done, it doesn't work. I've added delegates, I've given them owner
permissions to my inbox, my calendar, my task, you name it. I've gone into
email accounts like that page suggested. Nothing is working.

I have also had the other user do everything.

Does "you name it" include the folder you actually want to share and all its parent folders up to and including the root of the mailbox? All but the folder you want to share must be given Folder Visible permissions.

All the other user has to do is add your account to their Exchange settings. After they do that, what change do they see in their folder list?

Yes, "you name it" does include the subfolder calendars, my main calendar, my
mailbox and my inbox.

When they do the exchange settings, they still just get my default calendar,
not the subcalendars. I have given them owner permissions to the calendars
I'm trying to share.

That doesn't really answer the question. What, if anything, does the other user see specifically ***in the Folder List*** related to your mailbox?

there are no changes in the list. They have tried to open my other calendars
so many times that my calendar is already in their folder list.

Sorry to have to be so insistent, but I can't make any sense out of your answer. I am not talking about the Calendar navigation pane but about the Folder List navigation pane. When a user adds another mailbox to their Exchange settings, that mailbox always appears in the folder list. I want to know what happens when the user clients expands the folders in that secondary mailbox.
