Good the website it back! I could not access it yeasterday.--

I would say yes you need Illustrator installed on your machine - technically you could write it without but you'll never figure out the code without being able to test it. The demo version of Illustrator 10 allowed you to use scripting during the 30 day trial - I don't know about CS - but chances are is Adobe only has the 10 trial up right now.

If you have 10/CS installed you should be able to open the visual basic editor in say Excel and select tools -> references and click the box next to Adobe Illustrator XXX -- sorry don't know exactly the wording for CS. That will allow you start coding using the examples in the guide.
