According to this link http://blog.advantageevangelist.com/2009/10/faqs-september-2009.html you're out of luck for local dB access.

There is, however, a VFP driver that Crystal Reports uses that installs as a 32-bit driver and runs on 64-bit 2008. I can't get on our 2008 server that has it installed right now to find the name for you; but it is a company that sells drivers. Not that cheaply, IIRC, but only you can decide whether it's worth it. Anyway, it works for us (we munge our data into a temporary DBC with temporary DBF's, and it takes them in just fine).

You _can_ register the VFP OleDB driver on 64-bit OS's, by using regsvr32 in the SysWow64 directory inside System32. But you'll get the same error message even when you do that.
