Couple of options.

1. Convert it to CSV and upload it as CSV.

2. Use linkserver inside SQL Server.

3. Use OPENROWSET to access external database.

In Enterprise Manager, under tools is Data Transformation Services; this allows you to import and export data in a huge number of formats .... visual foxpro is just one of them
