Winter 07, Approvals and Field Update.

Hi all,

I'm pretty new to sfdc - thrown in at the deep end with an unlimited account.  I am trying to create an approval process using the built in Approvals and I would like to update a lookup field in the original object when someone else approves the request.  However when I add the field-update(Workflow Field Update Edit), I can only select from the list of Users.   I would like to be able to use a default value of who is doing the approval, e.g. {!User.Id} (I think), but when I enter this value all I get is "Error: No matching users found."

Any ideas how I can pre-populate some fields with the approver?   To complicate matters, I want to record perhaps 2-3 levels of Approval, and only when all three fields have been updated with the workflow change the final status to Approved.

Thanks,

PG
