[SOLVED] Thread Tools?

I have been asked by a moderator to go to Thread Tools and mark a thread "Solved". I have also gone to the FAQ and followed the link on How to Mark a Thread Solved, and basically got the same info. The problem seems to be that when I go to Thread Tools, I do not see an option for marking the thread "Solved". In my reading I have noted that several of the things that you are able to see and use are control by the moderators. Do the moderators have to turn on something for a Newbie to mark a thread as solved.

idem!

it only works on your own threads, and only when you're logged in.

For some reason it worked on this thread, however I have two other threads that I does not show up on.

Marking a thread as solved only works in the technical sub-fora, but not for example in non-*NIX/General.
After you were asked to mark the thread as solved I have moved it to non-*NIX/General because your question was not Linux specific.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

I appreciate the Explanation of the Difference Between Forums in their Behavior. I couldn't believe that I was so inept as to not know how to work a drop down box.
