I have a search I'm trying to fix that currently looks like:

Queue = 'Helpdesk' and Owner = 'aavriette' and LastUpdated < '7 days' and LastUpdated > '-7 days'

The LastUpdated thing smells like a hack to me, but it seems to work. I'd like to be able to say "and Owner = '_CurrentUser_'" but when I do, I get nothing. If I remove the ticks around currentuser, I get

Error near ->_CurrentUser_<- expecting a VALUE in ' Queue = 'Helpdesk' AND Owner = _CurrentUser_ [ ... ]

Since we have TPS reports to file weekly, I'm trying to give our users a "rolling 7 day window" of what they've updated in the last week. I want to then save the search, name it appropriately, and then add it to their "at a glance" page so they all have it and don't have to work too hard to get this information.

How do I properly use the CurrentUser variable? By the way, I did look at the wiki, and it has the stuff that got me to where I am (it was helpful, like letting me know I could use "negative days") and I used the "google trick" on the mailing list archives, but I didn't see anything appropriate. Apologies in advance if this has been answered; I'll update the wiki with this as an example (seems useful to me) when I get it figured out.

Many thanks,
alex
