I do not see the option for share sub folder and make them hidden in Windows
2008. Is this still doable?

In 2008, we changed the way we do file shares. We no longer have the 'file
share' resource. It's been replaced with the 'file server' resource. As
such, you no longer have the 'share subfolders' option. You manage cluster
file shares in 2008 just like it was a standalone server, through Explorer
or Share and Storage Management.

Thank you,
I have a few more questions.

1. If I use the migrate utility to convert to Windows 2008 Cluster will my
entire shared sub folders be created as shares?

2. I have a two node Win 2003 and a two node Win 2008 cluster. When I
migrate the Win 2003 to Win 2008 can I go back if something fails?

3. Does the level of my Domain have any affect?
