Can you explain more specifically what you are trying to do?  Linux determines if a file is executable by the permissions on the file - rwx - where r=read, w=write, x=executable.  Assuming you have a file you can be executed, try chmod'ing the file to 755 -

chmod 755 file

understand - you don't have to call it an .exe - you could call it test.joe if you wanted to.
