Is there a good VB6 documentation system similar to Javadoc?

Question

I'm working with a VB6 code base and I'm interested in beginning to generate documentation for future development efforts. I'm traditionally a Java developer and I've gotten quite used to the Javadoc system for generating such documentation. I found VB.DOC but from what I can see it's meant for a .NET environment. Are there any that will work in VB6?

Thanks in advance!

Are you seriously considering using VB6 for _future_ development? — AnthonyWJones, Nov 06 '08 at 10:18

There are a few filters that will allow you to use Doxygen with VB6.

I'm a Doxygen fan, but for VB6 I think VBDOX beats Doxygen in simplicity and ease of use. – Daniel Rikowski Jun 10 '10 at 08:04

I used Document! X version 4, but I have to say it was not the most stable program to use and sometimes caused crashes in the IDE. Perhaps later versions have improved; they still seem to support VB 5&6.
