Is it possible to use TFS source control without Visual Studio? I have to put some files in some source control, those files are stored in a folder in some server, that is something developed in Oracle forms. I just need to add those files in some source control and I'd like to use TFS for that. Any tips or tools could we use for this?

TFS is likely to be overkill for a few files in a single folder, but if the TFS infrastructure is already in place then it will work.
You will need Team Explorer (or, on non-Windows) Team Explorer Everywhere installed to give you the client tools. But you can perform all source code operations with the
tf.exe
command line (or equivalent from Team Explorer Everywhere).
