sharing a non-default calendar

[Guest]

I have my regular default calendar and then I created an additional calendar
that appears in the nav pane for tracking time off requests for employees.

I want to share this (the time off calendar) with my new admin. Asst. Can it
be done? I have tried sharing the folder and adding her to permissions and
only my default calendar appears on her machine. Am I doing something wrong?

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.
