Hi all: thanks so much for your help, I learned today a very new info for me. frankly, i can not find the place to enable the folder share inside the VMare, but, i found that it is already enabled, i was so happy for that, and, i found also that i can access my dropbox that is installed on my mac through the vmware. so, i put my files in the shared folder and i can access them through the vmware shared folder.
