Default sort column by colour

Martin

Excel cannot do this without help.

See Chip Pearson's site for code.

Hello, I have been given a rather large database sheet in Excel and some of
the line records have been coloured red, green and standard black. Is there a
way I can sort the records by colour i.e. red first the green then black?

Any tips or ideas most welcome Thanks Martin
