I DID IT!!! WOOO HOOO ... this is how:
virtualbox shared folders ....? Guest:OS Host:Ubuntu
On UBUNTU side:
Start settings in virtualbox, go to shared folders and browse to the folder you want to share
On Windows Vista side:
-first Install Guest Additions. (I already had done this before so I didn't need to do it now.) It is under the Devices menu on VirtualBox
-add which folder you want to share from Shared Folders option on Virtualbox
-open My Network Places on Windows OS click to View workgroup computers
(it can be different if you changed the default network name)
-look down to links with the header Other Places
-you will see Microsoft Windows Network.Click it
-you will see the Entire Network link and click it
-look at the page you will see VirtualBox Shared Folder
it was easy
