Hi,

If you are using 2007 and you've applied condtional formatting then you can
sort by color.

Highlight the column with the conditional formatting and choose Home, Sort &
Filter, Custom Sort. From the Sort On drop down pick Cell Color, from the
Order color choose the color of your conditional formatting, from the next
drop down choose On Top or On Bottom.

- This will result in all the conditionally formatted items being at the
bottom or top but in no particular order. So one of the nice new features in
2007 is you can apply multiple sorts to the same column!

Click Add Level and in the Sort On column leave Values, for the Order drop
down leave Smallest to Largest or whatever is appropriate.

- now all the duplicates will be at the top by color and within there color
sorted low to high.

If this helps, please click the Yes button

Cheers,
