st: How to save and use the output of stata command -list-

Dear Statalist,
I want to save and subsequently use the output that I find from the command -list-. Can anyone tell how to do that in stata? Let me give an example to further clarify. I have a data set like the following:
IDnumber State NewID
1 Alabama .
2 Alaska .
.. .... ...
.. .... ...
.. .... ...
52 Wyoming .
If I input -list IDnumber if State=="Wyoming"-, it returns '52'. Now I want to fill the first cell of the variable NewID by this output. How can I write code for that? Thanks in advance.
Best regards
Majumder
