displaying tabs using CTabCtrl

hello.
I have an dialog based program, I have created the actual tabs but I cant seem to display the dialog, tried sei item, insertitem and even create (which cause the program to crush when it gets to the line). how can I do it using the CTabCtrl class?
if not is there an other easier way to do it?

I find using CPropertySheet makes life way easier than messing with individual tabs.

If you can't use CPropertySheet and CPropertyPage then look at my Tab Controls the Old-Fashioned Way.
