Thank you very much for your cooperation, but i already found my answer. It was as follows:
1 - open my computer.
2 - from the tools menu, choose map network drive
3 - choose browse
4 - from the next window choose "vboxsvr" or something like that.
5 - choose your shared folder you already put from the drive menu
6 - you will see a new drive appeare in my computer menu.

have fun doing sharing
