You can -save- it with the dataset. -postfile-, btw, might be a smarter
choice for your problem.

forv i=1/10{
set obs 1
gen byte myvar=`i'
save myfile`i', replace
drop _all
}
//example file # 7
u myfile7

Subject: st: Saving loop index value
Greetings,
I want to "keep" the value of i which indexes the "forvalues" loop in
the loop below. I've tried including it as a macro variable (i.e., `I')
on my keep statement. I've also tried assigning it to a new variable
and then keeping the new variable. Neither has worked. Can someone
tell me how to keep i in my output dataset?
Thanks in advance.
P.S. I'm new to using macros and programming in Stata.
#delimit ;
clear all;
log using test.log, replace;
set more 1;
insheet using CAT_scenario_1.csv;
drop cat_scenario county;
rename max_temp_degf maxt;
rename precip_in prcp;
forvalues i = 0/45 {;
preserve;
keep if offset==`i';
collapse (mean) prcp maxt, by(period);
do bm9304_6;
drop sdci_bp grup_bp;
keep year *_bp;
save scenario`i', replace;
restore;
};
