Dragon Dictate 3 - How well does it work for writing into Windows VM?

I'm tempted to get Dragon Dictate 3 for Mac, but want to know how well it will work using it to write into my Windows VM.

Is there a lot of functionality that won't pass through into the VM, will I just get basic dictation into the specific field. I guess I can't do things like 'Email Person A' like I see in demo vids of it running on Mac, as it would have no way to interface directly with Outlook if i'm running the Mac version of Dragon.
