I think you need to call Activate on your OLE object.

Here is some code I use to extract the text from an Excel worksheet embedded
in a PowerPoint slide. Maybe you can adapt it to your purposes.

def extract_excel_text( shape ):
    """Process embedded excel worksheet in the powerpoint slide
    """

    format = shape.OLEFormat
    format.Activate()
    excel = format.Object
    sheet = excel.ActiveSheet
    for row in sheet.UsedRange.Value:
        for cell in row:
            if cell:
                yield cell
    for shape in sheet.Shapes:
        try:
            # We need to give a range of characters,              #
            # but we can take advantage of the fact that texboxes #
            # have a maximum length of 255 characters             #
            yield shape.TextFrame.Characters(1,255).Text
        except com_error, details:
            log_error( "Exception getting shape text", details )
