I am assuming you do not want to save the dataset but some coeficients.
(If you want to save the dataset aswell it is better to just create one
big dataset in one go and not loop over various randomly generated
smaller datasets, which is essentially what -simulate- does.)
what about this:
*------------------ begin example -----------------
capture program drop simprog
program simprog, eclass
drop _all
set obs 1000
gen x=uniform()
drawnorm resid
local beta=2
gen y=`beta'*x+resid
regress y x
matrix b = e(b)
matrix V = e(V)
local rmse = e(rmse)
ereturn post b V
ereturn scalar rmse = `rmse'
end
simulate _b _se rmse=e(rmse), reps(20): simprog
*------------------ end example -------------------
Hope this helps,
Maarten
