How to create a bold and italic label in MFC?

Please do not mark it as a dupe of this question just yet:

That question does not help me; for some reason I do not see the rich edit control. Instead I believe I have to do it in code. here is a sample I found:

My problem is that I prefer not to re-invent the wheel and test for errors myself or through QA.
Someone must have implemented this before. Please share your code.
What I would like to do is:
Keep the same font size, family, etc. as in the already created label, but make it bold and italic as well.
Keep the memory footprint reasonably low (do not create any new unnecessary objects), but do not get the app into an inconsistent state either.
I appreciate your help.
