While there is probably code out ther in VB land to act as an HTML to
Text parser there may be a couple of simpler solutions.

1) Embedd the MS Internet Explorer ActiveX control on a hidden form.
Copy your HTML string to the control then read the control's text
property. To get you started see:

or

2) Copy the HTML text to the ClipBoard. Then ask the Clipboard for plain
text. You will have to search for VB API clipboard routines as Access
does not expose a ClipBoard object.
