Default How do I filter the cells based in Fill color?

In excel when we highlighted some of the cells with color. Finally those
unique colored cells want to filter in single step.

You could update to xl2007. This feature was added with that version.

And if you're using xl2003 or below, you can try Ron de Bruin's EasyFilter
addin:

Or you could use a helper cell in each row that would return the color of the
cell you want.

Chip Pearson shows how:

Look for: Colors In A Cell Or Range

If you're new to macros:

Debra Dalgleish has some notes how to implement macros he

David McRitchie has an intro to macros:

(General, Regular and Standard modules all describe the same thing.)
