Now, if I knew the name of the date field for all the files, I could

MyFile, GQBGUN, count(*) as MyCount FROM UPpenfiles/STMTM3P GROUP
BY GQBGUN ORDER by GQBGUN') OUTPUT(*PRINT)

Run it across an entire library.

If which date field can be determined from a list of all the date fields in the [record format of the] file, or if there is only ever one date field for the [record format of the] file, then there are numerous ways to obtain the column name(s) to enable making that substitution. Although just as Manuel suggested for an approach, I would probably defer to the Query Management Query (QMQRY) variable substitution feature [Set Variables (SETVAR) of the Start QM Query (STRQMQRY)] instead of whatever that custom RUNSQL uses\does.
