Filtering MOSS lists with the [Me] function

To filter content in SharePoint libraries and lists so that users only see items that they created or modified use the [Me] filter. The filter will only work with SharePoint user IDs for example Created By / Modified By. It won't work with custom created fields like User Name unless it is associated with a SharePoint ID. (See Greg Collins blog post "Use the SharePoint '[Me]' Filter with a Promoted Property", for other functions see WSS FAQ)
