Doc Manager API requires presence of solidworks explorer?

It appears to me that the solidworks explorer applicationmust be installed on the host computer in order for a program tosuccessfullly call and use the Doc Mgr API? I can't get my programto run on computers where solidworks explorer is notinstalled...but it does run on computers where sw explorer ispresent.

Has anyone else had the same experience?
