The solution might depend on what you are trying to use the file for. Are you trying to query the file via ODBC using ColdFusion? Maybe use SSIS or a similar technology to import the data into a database and query the database. Maybe run a 32-bit virtual machine or a second server that handles whatever goal you are trying to accomplish. Maybe there is some third party driver that is available.
