I need to compile some mfc code that was written using Visual C++ 6.0 many years ago. I was supposed to be able to choose New->Project->Win32 Application and then in Project->Settings choose "Using MFC as a static library." I'm using the AE version and this could be the reason that this option is not available. So far, the smaller programs compile using the "Use MFC as a shared dll", but I'd like to have or mimic the other option. Any suggestions?
I don't know for certain, but I don't think Visual C++ Express supports MFC at all.

Whoo, yep, that's true. I'll modify my answer accordingly.

Thanks for your comments and suggestions. I changed a few things, like the include statement for <strstrea.h> and casting strings to LPCSTR's and it works in Visual Studio 2008. This was my first time working with MFC. Interesting.
