Thanks Nick, Clive, and Scott for your collective solution to this
problem.

Taking the idea from Clive of using -catplot- and from
Scott that a data restructure is needed, another way is along
these lines. First we create an example dataset as did
Scott
clear
set obs 30
qui forv i = 1/7 {
gen c`i' = 1
replace c`i' = 2 if uniform() <.4
replace c`i' = 3 if uniform() <.3
}
Then
gen id = _n
reshape long c , i(id)
catplot bar c _j
There is no need to get into file manipulations,
as all can be done in place.
