You don't need any javascript-support, to read-out the plain-text from some HTML-Document-input
(if that's what you are after, which isn't entirely clear)...

FWIW, here's a simple function, which does just that:
Code:
Private Sub Form_Load()
  Debug.Print HtmlToText("<html><body><p>Some HTML to be Parsed</p></body></html>")
End Sub

Function HtmlToText(sHTML As String) As String
  With CreateObject("htmlfile")
    .write sHTML: HtmlToText = .body.innerText
  End With
End Function
