Pratik: I've gotten this to work on my own projects (for example, to load data into Excel). But ONLY with Internet Explorer (on Windows, of course). I doubt it would ever work cross-browser (or with AIR), because the browser needs to implement support for instantiating ActiveX objects and to call methods on them. AFAIK, this is an IE-only feature.
Bottom line: if you want to do this (and can live with the browser restrictions), the Flex ExternalInterface API to call some JS code which instantiates and calls the ActiveX object (like your example JS code does).
