Is there a way to see shared calendars that are not the default outlook
calendar?

On the office assistant page I read:
"You can only open the default Outlook folders for each item type. For
example, if a person has created an additional calendar, you can only open
the default calendar."

But what is strange is that I can click on secondary calendars in outlook
and assign permissions just like I would my default calendar. My problem is,
how do you open up these calendars in somone elses outlook?

I need to be able to share 4 or 5 different calendars from my machine and
have somone else view all of them.
 
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/assistance/preview.aspx?AssetID=HA011134811033
