Ok, so here is how you get the contents of your leadmeasurements node,

Dim oDoc AS DOMDocument
Dim oNode AS IXMLDOMNode
Set oDoc = new DOMDocument40
oDoc.Load "MyXmlFile.xml"

Set oNode = oDoc.SelectSingleNode("//leadmeasurements")

MsgBox oNode.Text

Now, what do you want to do with it?

When I was faced with the prospect of parse Xml data in VB6 I created a new COM visible class in DotNet and utilised its Xml processing functions which I could call from VB6.
