Shared Calendar, Outlook vs SWA

Sorry if this is not the right forum for this problem, but I'm not sure where to start with it.

Several users are telling me that a shared calendar can be seen in Outlook but not in the SWA. Is there a setting that I'm overlooking on this?

Do you mean a public folder? That should be available in the webclient as well.

Alternately, maybe you mean an agregated calendar, where data from several calendars is totaled into one. I don't think that's avaialble in the webclient.

Kev.

What version of Outlook (and has it been upgraded from previous, in which case what was the earliest Outlook install) as there is a depreciated 'shared calendar' concept that is Outlook only (A calendar / folder on one PC is shared with other local networked PC's) but this won't work within Scalix as it actually 'belongs' to one of the users.

Other than that, a public folder should be visible to all (Premium?) users in SWA, but I don't think a literal shared / delegated Outlook calendar can be opened, ie quivalent of 'Open another users folder'

All of which is probably no help, how is the folder 'shared' in Outlook?'

Thanks for the replys. This is a plain public folder where the all the users have the same rights to it. Again, in Outlook they see this public calendar, however, in SWA it does not show up.
