We were looking at how to create an RSS Feed reader in VB6 without using a WebBrowser control - couldn't find any examples, so we came up with this: http://www.callmap.co.uk/vbrss.htm.

Hope you might find it useful in your own apps!

Cheers.

I made an rss feed reader in vb6 too.
Though I used a winsock to connect to the server, send a header like a browser does, get the reply (aka the feed).
Then I wrote a really simple xml parser in a .bas, and used that to get the data I needed.
And yes, as I'm sure you're thinking, the code was a huge pile of messy'ness!

Might try tidy it up and release it, if anyone wants a look at a really awkward way of doing this?

Top job on your code though :)
