I can open my boss' contacts folder but I want it to show
on my folder list so I can access his e-mail addresses to
sent e-mails for him. Anyone know if this can be done?

He has to set Privacy profile to allow you to do
different levels of things with his emails. He even had
to adjust his Privacy profile to allow you to view his
emails.
 
The process of adding another user's Contacts folder to your own address book display is somewhat involved:

1. Start with a profile that logs directly onto the other user's mailbox, not your own.

2. On the Properties dialog for the other user's Contacts folder, make sure that it's set to display in the Outlook Address Book and give it a display name other than contacts, such as Joe's Contacts.

3. Close Outlook.

4. In Control Panel | Mail, edit the *same profile* to change the mailbox from the other user's to your own. On the Advanced tab of the Exchange Server service, add the other user's mailbox as a secondary mailbox.

5. Restart Outlook, and you should see the Joe's Contacts in your Outlook Address Book as well as your own Contacts folder.
