TabCtrl's TC_ITEM

I insert a CTreeCtrl into a CTabCtrl using the InsertItem() function:

  TC_ITEM TCI;
  TCI.mask = TCIF_PARAM;
  TCI.lParam = (LPARAM)pTreeCtrl;
  VERIFY(m_TabCtrl.InsertItem(0, &TCI) != -1);

I can get a pointer to the treectrl by doing:

  TC_ITEM TCI;
  TCI.mask = TCIF_PARAM;
  m_TabCtrl.GetItem(nTab, &TCI);
  CTreeCtrl * pWnd = (CTreeCtrl *)TCI.lParam;

But i want something like this,  :

  CTreeCtrl &Tree = GetTreefromTabCtrl();

How shall i go about modifying the above code?

If you assign to all tab control items the pointer to tree control
1.Add variable m_tree of type CTreeCtrl to the class GetTreefromTabCtrl is member of
2.Add code for the function
CTreeCtrl& CYuorClass::GetTreefromTabCtrl()
{
ASSERT(m_TabCtrl.GetItemCount() > 0);

 TC_ITEM TCI;
  TCI.mask = TCIF_PARAM;
  m_TabCtrl.GetItem(0, &TCI);
  CTreeCtrl * pWnd = (CTreeCtrl *)TCI.lParam;
ASSERT_KINDOF(CTreeCtrl, pWnd);
CopyMemory(&m_tree, pWnd, sizeof(CTreeCtrl));
return m_tree;
}
