In order to loop over all your .dta files, first make sure they are named after a logical order (i.e example_1.dta, example_2.dta, example_3.dta etc).
Then, you can load the first dataset and loop over the other ones with a forvalues loop:
cd "path/to/your/datasets"
use example_1.dta, clear
forvalues i = 2(1)35 {
merge 1:1 rowid_ using example_`i'.dta
drop _merge
}
