Your question is a bit too general to give a useful answer.  One possible answer
to your question is:
> mrv <- matrix( runif(1000), ncol=10 )
Which generates multivariate random observations, but is unlikely to be what you
are really trying to accomplish.  There are many tools for generating
multivariate random data including Metropolis-Hastigns, Gibbs sampling,
rejection sampling, conditional generation, copulas, and many others, which one
will be best (or which combination will be best) depends on what you are
actually trying to accomplish.
