I was looking for something to automatically update queries a year or
so ago, and came across a program called UPDQRY by Jeff Yanoviak. It's
an RPG program that will read a file listing query names/library, loop
through it and edit and re-save each query definition. It uses WRKQRY
through a virtual terminal.

As regards error checking, it sends a message to the job log together
with the query name, so you can check through that afterwards.

Very efficient - will process dozens of queries in a few seconds.

I think I found it on iSeriesNetwork.com - you may need a subscription
to see it.

----------------------
I think you missed what we really want (from the first post - a tool
to
regenerate queries after a file change). These tools, QRYUSE and
something
like my simple tool only identify where a file or field is used.
Unfortunately, 
after large scale file changes, we end up opening WRKQRY and bring
each
query up, one by one, option 2 to edit, f3 to save,..... It takes
hours and hours.. 
A tool or api would have to have good error checking, because it is
possible
the file changes applied will cause some queries to have errors.
What we really want is a "compile" command for queries.
This point & click is so 'last century..'
