Find Organizer/History Data File for Acrobat Pro 9.0

Dear fellow forum participants,

I often use the Information available under File --> History --> Open Organizer.  It is important to me.

I decided I need to back it up, i.e. to save it in (or export it to) a usable format (such as a text file), so that I can then manipulate the data. Presumably Acrobat stores it in some sort of data-file -- so where is that file?

I've checked through the how-to material on this site, and have asked appropriate questions. No go.

Searching the Data Drive on the computer, I've found:

C:\Users\Geoff\AppData\LocalLow\Adobe\Acrobat\9.0\Organizer90

This file opens in Notepad. It seems to contain the required information -- filepaths-and-names of pdfs, and associated dates. 

So far so good. But the data is hardly usable:

   >   Also,though I can roughly make out the format. it isn't that clear.

Any tips? I'd be most grateful

PS I hope this enquiry is categorised correctly. Perhaps it should go under Standards and Accessibility -- it relates to Acrobat's data storage standards and ways of accessing the data...
