So how does a busy person keep track of work they have delegated out to people? One way is to build a query in TFS to keep track of the work items you have created and assigned out to other people.
To create a new query in TFS right mouse click on the Work Items folder in Team Explorer. The query we want is simple, you just set the Activated By = @Me.
@Me is a macro in the WIQL syntax. TFS queries use a syntax called WIQL (work item query language). You can find a nice WIQL reference guide here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb130155(VS.80).aspx.
If anyone knows how to use the query to auto subscribe me to change alerts post a comment!
