That is the expected behavior when opening a VI with VI Server; you have to manage the FP opening explicitely.
About the compatibility issue between LabVIEW versions, whether you use exe or dll, you can't open a VI reference to a VI having a different version in your application instance. However, you can have an executable (7.1) running for example the 7.1 plugins and another 8.6 application invoking them opening first an application reference with the VI Server.
