The option to do so is not available in the properties for a static in VC++.
I have to manually edit the .rc file, and only *then* does the option appear.
Is there a way to avoid having to manually edit the .rc file?

The wizards do not show every single property for a control. Only the mose significant ones. That does not mean you need to change the style in the resource editor. All you need to do is make sure to give the control an ID other than IDC_STATIC. Then, after the control has been created, you can modify it's style with CWnd::ModifyStyle() passing SS_OWNERDRAW.
