The first part is
collapse v2-v17, by(v1)
but I don't understand what you mean by "I would like to calculate the
variance matrix for such new dta and saving it in one more new dta."

I would like to produce a new dta file with 17 columns (keeping the original names) and 63 rows, containing the id variable, and the mean of the remaining 16 columns calculated by the id variable.
