You are right! It does not seem to show. The way to do it (or the fix for the forum) should be indicated here soon:

FOR ADMINS - How to select the correct answer on a thread on this forum?

Thanks!

UPDATE FROM THE LINK ABOVE:

The only normal user (non-admin type) who can mark an answer as helpful or correct is the user who started the discussion.

So, in this case is "jramos760".
