You need to build a dynamic SQL statement for variable file names -
you're 99% there. I think the problem is you can't pass a file name
through replacement markers.

Change to something like this:

Filename = 'SLSALL';
ActSQL = 'Select Coalesce(Min(INVDT),' + @Q + '0001-01-01' + @Q + ')' +
', Coalesce(Max(INVDT),' + @Q + '0001-01-01' + @@ + ')' +
', Coalesce(Count(*),0) ' +
'Into ?, ? , ? From ' + Filename;

Then prepare the statement, then execute.

Subject: SQL file not hardcoded

'Into ?, ? , ? From ?';

Exec SQL Prepare Stmt1 from :ActSQL;

but then couldn't figure out how to execute it. The EXECUTE IMMEDIATE
doesn't like USING. All the examples I found in this regard use a
cursor.
