where job_details.jd_status = 'Job'
and job_details.jd_date < (select dateadd('31/08/2007', 'day' , 7)) ????

Kim, why in the second line present SELECT?
You have take it from example of dateadd function, yes?
But that is just an example of call.
The correct call should be as:
where job_details.jd_status = 'Job'
and job_details.jd_date < dateadd('31/08/2007', 'day' , 7)
and job_details.jd_date > '31/08/2007'

I do not think this is an issue here.
Btw, as I remember exists function to get only DATE part from a DateTime
value.

You should not parse time.
Ok, try for now corrected query, and when Ivan will come he can explain
better. DATETIME functions was his development.
