You can use IB to build tabtab and modify tabs to splitviewcontroller.

-(void) makeSplitViewController {
NSMutableArray *controllers = [NSMutableArray arrayWithArray:tabBarController.viewControllers];
int index = 0;

for (UIViewController *controller in tabBarController.viewControllers) {
    if ([controller.tabBarItem.title isEqualToString:@"Stock"]) {
        stockDetailController = [[StockDetailController alloc] initWithNibName:@"StockDetailController" bundle:nil];

        stockMasterController = [[StockMasterController alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewStylePlain]; 
        stockMasterController.navigationItem.title = date;
        stockMasterController.stockDetailController = stockDetailController;

        UINavigationController *nav = [[[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:stockMasterController] autorelease];

        splitViewController = [[UISplitViewController alloc] init];
        splitViewController.tabBarItem = controller.tabBarItem;
        splitViewController.viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:nav, stockDetailController, nil];
        splitViewController.delegate = stockDetailController;

        [controllers replaceObjectAtIndex:index withObject:splitViewController];
    }

    index++;
}

tabBarController.viewControllers = controllers;

}
