Basic equation doesn't compute

Hi folks,
Awesome product. Great Community.
Problem:
When button is clicked:
Var3 = 10000
Constrain Var1 = Ran(1,3)*1000
Constrain Var2 = Var1+Var3
Display Var2
First result is fine. It's every result after that is too high. Instead of being 1-3K each time the button is pushed and added to the previous amount, the total jumps by random amounts of 10K or more. What am I missing?

i.e. the values held in variable 1 are 'kept'. So you may get variable 1 = 3000, then it'l add to that 3000 the next time you press the button.
Maybe.
Or you might want to 'change variable' instead of 'constrain variable'
Good luck!

The suggestion to utilize 'change attribute' instead of 'constrain attribute' fixed the problem.
