TFS 2010 - New Work Item - Automatic Selection Assigned With Your ID

Question

Is there a way to select the logged-in user for the Assigned-To field when creating the work item.

Now, when we create an error, the assigned-empty field is empty. Then the user must select the person (most of the time, he) from the available list.

I tried this with TFS2005 and it worked, so I wonder what needs to be changed.

Not sure how to do this using the graphical user interface as it was, but in xmlyou can set it like this:

  <TRANSITIONS>
    <TRANSITION from="" to="New">
      <REASONS>
        <DEFAULTREASON value="Identified" />
      </REASONS>
      <FIELDS>
        <FIELD refname="System.AssignedTo">
          <DEFAULT from="currentuser" />
        </FIELD>
      </FIELDS>
    </TRANSITION>
    .....
  </TRANSITIONS>
