Compile is restricted in a VFP EXE (see page 620 of the Developer's Guide). That means it won't work in an EXE. Since you can't compile you can't run a prg (which fox would need to compile into an FXP before running). I wonder if you stored the FXP in a general field and then copied that out to a file to run, would it work, I haven't tried it though...
