Follow the procedures in this section to install PC-DMIS and configure your system to use the SolidWorks Direct CAD Interface.
SolidWorks must be installed on a bit-wise compatible PC.
Make sure you have full administrator rights before you proceed.
If you haven't already done so, install SolidWorks (see the "Supported CAD Systems" topic) on the same computer that runs PC-DMIS. You must be able to run SolidWorks on the local machine for PC-DMIS to be able to interface with SolidWorks. You must have a basic SolidWorks license; if not, you can purchase one from SolidWorks (see http://www.solidworks.com).
