How about saving them in the same file and adding a variable for the
itteration (i) and the group (j)?

*--------------- begin example ---------------
sysuse auto, clear
tempname myfile
tempname results

local i = 1
postfile `myfile' i j R2 Ra2 SE using `results', replace

forvalues i = 1/1000 {
	generate group = uniform() < .5
	quietly regress mpg foreign rep78 if group == 1
	post `myfile' (`i') (1) (e(r2)) (e(r2_a)) (e(rmse))
	quietly regress mpg foreign rep78 if group == 0
	post `myfile' (`i') (0) (e(r2)) (e(r2_a)) (e(rmse))
	drop group 
}

postclose `myfile'

use `results', clear
twoway kdensity R2 if j == 1 || kdensity R2 if j == 0
*-------------------- end example ----------------
(For more on how to use examples I sent to the Statalist, see

Hope this helps,
Maarten
