Welcome to our forum. You might want to take this opportunity to browse the
Forum Posting Guide. This contains some useful tips on how to search for VBox knowledge and how to frame Qs.
You really need to provide more info, but first two basic Qs: Are you using the PUEL Edition? Have you install Guest Additions on your guest?

I have had VirtualBox USB working before, but had to do a Ubuntu reinstall and now find it is grayed out, but does show show all connected USB devices.

Forgive a simple link, but this issue has been covered many times, all across the internets, and a simple check of the googles yields some pretty good answers.
