Personally I would prefer to keep a database table that records at least the following information

Job start time
Job end time
Number of records extracted

You can then query this table for the max date prior to starting the next run. Storing information on a file on the operating system is risky and this gives you the added advantage of being able to track changes in record numbers and processing time.

Obviously this whole design is based on the assumption that all tables to be extracted will have a timestamp attribute.
