Identifying who runs a workflow

I'd like to create a workflow that creates a number of records as an 'on demand workflow'. However, I would like to make reference to the user that runs the workflow in some of the record text and emails. Is anyone aware of how to to do this? For example, an automated email might say, "... approved by xxxx' where xxxx is the name of the user that ran the workflow. At the moment, I can only find fields for the record creator and updater, neither of which is the user that runs the workflow.

Thanks in advance. Will

Hi,

you'll need this kind of custom workflow activity:

Or you can update some record in the workflow, and, then, get modifiedby from that record..
