There are settings you can configure in virtual box to set up the copy/paste clipboard to be shared from host and guest machine (in either or both directions), so don't lose hope. Just keep looking!

Thanks. I tried checking the box that allows copying and pasting files from the clipboard, but it still didn't work.
