This may not be elegant, but try:
preserve
collapse (sum) b, by(a)
save filename, replace
restore
I hope it helps.

Subject: st: how to save output from TABLE or TABSTAT as a stata .dta
data file
Dear all:
I am wondering if anyone knows how to save table output from TABLE or
TABSTAT to a stata data file.
For example, I have used
. table a, c(sum b)
to generate a list of summary statistics:
a sum(b)
1 19372
2 102820
3 21403
4 19001
5 82549
6 15664
7 83616
8 50149
How do I save this and maybe change the name of the two variables for
later use.
Thank you very much.
