The easiest way is to create a classifier  (with the appropriate folders) for
those types of endgames. Every time you add games to the database containing the
classifier, simply select all the folders, and update the number of games.

It is easy to explain in words, but will take you some time to figure out, if
you've never used the classifiers before.

At my site (www.chessassistance.com), there is a generic classifier template for
download. It contains common types of endgames, as well as other static and
dynamic themes.
