How to import data from XML to VB5/VB6 without setting a reference to MSXML

Hello, do you know how to import data from an XML file to VB5/VB6 without setting a reference to MS XML?

What I mean is, can you parse an XML file through pure VB code, extract the records from it and show the data in a VB form, e.g. in one or more textboxes?

Thanks in advance.
