Query for daily scrums

Please let me know the conditions for a query to list the workitems for daily scrum updates. Me being the scrum master I would like to have a query to list down all teh workitems that are worked by my team members today and planned for tomorrow.

Although there is a Myview for every individual developer who can look into the view and update me on the planned tasks, instead of collecting updates like wise, I would like to establish the viewlet to handle the same.

a. Actitvitites to be worked for today

Conditions:
=>Item belongs to current iteration
=>Status -> In progress
=>Due date -> can be today ( not sure of the date criterial need your help).
OR
=>Can I set Planned for->Start date-> today ?

b. Activitites to be worked for tomorrow.

Conditions:
=>Item belongs to current iteration
=>Status -> Unresolved

=>Due date -> can be tomorrow
Not sure of the date criterial need your help, because this is to be hardcoded which is not corect.
If i use relative dates -> 1 days fromnow ( will it really show me next day task when i login early in the morning)?
OR
=>Can I set Planned for->Start date-> tomorrrow

Please help me know the conditions to be added to retrieve the workitems planned for today & tomorrow in the current iteration.

Hi Savitha, if you navigate in Team Artifacts to "My Team Areas," expand the node, right-click on your team's area and select "Show Recent Events, "you'll have a list of work items team members finished today, yesterday and earlier plus recently opened impediments. (I recommend you create an impediments viewlet on each team's dashboard.)

What Recent Events doesn't show is items team members plan to work on today. To see team members' current work, open the team's current iteration plan (sprint backlog) and select the "Planned Time" view. This will show you work items at the top of each team member's backlog. It will also show you team members' load, which gives an indication of who is falling behind in their commitments.

I recommend using a plan viewed as Planned Time. It will show what the
MyWork view shows, but per developer. That gives you a concise overview
and allows for further modification, e.g showing the status.

I wouldn't relay on start dates, but use the planning feature. That
updates depending on the estimate and time remaining. Therefore it
provides a life view.

Another view option that is useful for the Daily Scrum is the developers
taskboard. It shows a column per state and a group per developer.
