Definitive Current User in a formula

Hi, I have a list of invoices with an approver selected from the user list for each line item, what I want to do is check if the 'current user' is the same as the 'approver' and if so then allow them to write to the item.
I have a fake users list, and i can have a module with users with show all set to off, but none of these allow me to use the current user in a formula…
Boolean: Approver - Current USER
Why is this so difficult?
Thanks

    In the same module where you have the Approver line item with users list, create 2 line items

    DCA Read = NOT DCA Write

    DCA Write should have all the lists applied in the module plus users list. And formulla has to be

    ITEM(Users) = Approver

    Used these driver items wherever needed. It should work. Let me know.
