Hi Stephen, With total respect for Chuck and his knowledge, Finale does NOT need a measure to have an item in it to prevent it from creating a multimeasure rest. The staff style alone would be sufficient.
My previous answer is almost certainly the solution, and it is a one-step solution. You won't have to do it several times to the same document. This should save you quite a bit of work.
