One of the application is using ActiveXObject to create excel object. This works in IE but not in Firefox. So need help to find out an alternative to create ActiveXObject("Excel.Application").

How can we make this to work in Firefox?

Please let me know if the question is not clear. Thanks for the help.

Firefox doesn't do ActiveX. Try one of the IE Tab extensions.
