Self Assesment - property pages

I am filling my SA Online form ,
Under Profits and losses for other property income --> Adjusted profit or loss calculation The calulation is as follows :
37. Loss brought forward from previous year: £ 800.00
38. Taxable profit for the year (box 36 minus box 37): £ Not Entered
39. Adjusted loss for the year - £600.00
40. Loss set-off against 2007-08 total income –
this will be unusual: £ Not Entered
41. To carry forward to following year, including
unused losses brought forward: £ 800.00
I think the figure under column 41 should be £ 1400.00.

Any one has experienced this problem ? I called up the help desk, they told me that the calculation is correct .

The notes

at first glance suggest you are right, but perhaps you have entered something in one of the other boxes you don't mention that affect box 41?

Column 41 is the last column in this page

Yes, it is the last column on the page but I am not sure why you mention that? (Unless you read 'that affect box 41?' as ...after box 41?)

Looking at the notes again, the only thing I can think of - other than a bug in the online form - is did you put something in box 36 by mistake?
