Tested:

VFP9 Executable calling a VFP 7 executable will use the VFP 9 DLLS.
VFP 9 exe -- VFP 7 exe
VFP 9 dll -- VFP 9 dll
But I think this is what you meant. I don't know about apps, but this is the way it works with our production Executable. We had to compile the VFP 7 executable into a VFP 9 executable to make the UI look correct.
