Howto for Ubuntu is easy https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/index.html
Maybe you should expand on what you are really wanting to do, so someone could help if possible.

OK first thing that you need to do is have Windows installed in VBox. Your profile says that you have Vista installed so I will assume that is correct.
You would then install Office and what ever you need in the Windows VM and then to get it to go seamless you open the Windows guest and using the hot key you press (host + L) to go to seamless mode. To get out of seamless mode you press the (host + l) again.
