How can I make a string be a random number?

I think it's got something to do with arrays, but all tcl-commands.doc says isn't good enough!

Cheers

set string [rand 1000]

set string to a number between 1 and 1000

ooops

I knew it was - or + 1 somewhere in there ..... didn't have the time check which it was... guess I picked the wrong one
