I needed a print dialog box in an application I was writing.  The 
documentation said:

"After calling DoModal(), GetDefaults() or GetPrinterDC() a printer DC 
will be returned in m_pd.hDC.  This DC must be freed by the caller of 
CPrintDialog."

Given the following code:

   pprtdlg = new CPrintDialog(false);


   if (pprtdlg->DoModal() == IDOK)
      pcdc->Attach(pprtdlg->GetPrinterDC());

   delete(pprtdlg->m_pd.hDC); <-------- offending line
   delete pprtdlg;

Does anyone have an idea of why the offending line causes a GPF?
