I'd avoid FAT-32...
You will not be able to store big files that are bigger than 4Gb...
FAT-32 is deprecated...
Just make a NTFS of it...
Ubuntu is smart enough to work with that (even shared my mails using Thunderbird in these two OSes
Obviously, the real question is...
Do you really need a Windows partition ?
Depending on what you need it for, would a Virtual Machine (V-box) not suffice ?
