I think you'll have to use a DSN. You can use a File DSN if you want it to be more portable.

Depending on what type of database your .dbf is associated with. If it is a dBase type, you don't need a DSN. Choose your version of dBase from the list, and specify the folder location containing the .dbf files.
If it is FoxPro files, you probably must use a DSN, although there are several DSNs that come with Windows for FoxPro files and you probably won't have to make a new one.
