Default How to populate a cell based on font color/threshold

Though you could filter a list by font color using VBA, this approach is
not possible with font colors produced by conditional formatting. What you
need is an additional helper column with a formula that checks for the
condition (which would probably the same as you are already using for your
conditional formatting) and inserts a marker, e.g. =IF(<condition, "X","")
.. You could then use Excel's standard filter techniques to full out all rows
containing the marker.

I'm totally in the dark on this so any help would be greatly appreciated!
I
have a spreadsheet that lists my call center staff in one column and their
associated pause and login state times in other columns within the same
row.
I have conditional formatting set on the pause state and login state cell
data to turn the font color to red when tresholds are met. I need a way to
automatically compile on a second worksheet only those staff names where
their respective pause time cell data meets or exceeds a specified
threshold
limit or/and font color is red. I also need the actual pause, login data
meeting the tresholdlevl to populate in the second worksheet.

I am using Excel 2007

Thank you,
Anthony
