Default data sort by highlighted or coloured cell

does anyone know if this is possible... rather unconveniently a person has
highlighted in red about 400/500 or so rows within a 12,000 row data spread.
Apart from thinking how long that must of taken I know need to sort these, is
there a way that anyone knows? I've tried looking into conditional formating
and data sorting but couldn't find anything. Otherwise it's a trawl through
the spreadsheet for me... thanks, A.
