Printing Problem

Ok,
   I have been banging my head off the wall over this for about 2 hours and I can not figure out what is going on. I have a windows application that I need to be able to print from, no big deal. I set up my menus and such that are related to printing and calling:

[printdocument].Print();

Sends the document to the printer without a problem. Now if i do something like this:

    PrintDocument tmpDoc = new PrintDocument();
    tmpDoc.PrintPage += new PrintPageEventHandler(toPrinter);
    tmpDoc.DefaultPageSettings = pgSettings;
    PrintDialog dlg = new PrintDialog();
    dlg.Document = tmpDoc;
    DialogResult dlgResult = dlg.ShowDialog();
    if (dlgResult == DialogResult.OK)
    {
        tmpDoc.Print();
    }

The print Dialog box is displayed correctly BUT when the I click on the OK button, this line:

DialogResult dlgResult = dlg.ShowDialog();

Generates the error:

An unhandled exception of type 'System.Security.SecurityException' occurred in mscorlib.dll

Additional information: Request for the permission of type System.Drawing.Printing.PrintingPermission, System.Drawing, Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a failed.

As I said, calling [printdocument].print(); works fine and the page is printed correctly, however if i try to do anything else (change settings in code, or to use the dialog box) i get that error. Does anyone have any answers for this!?

I will only tell you how to do it, not do it for you.
Unless, of course, you want to hire me to do work for you.
