I have a big database of stuff (thousands of rows) where I've been using the background color of cells as a way to sort of check off the status of an item. I just realized yesterday that the color approach leaves me no recourse if I want to sort by items that have a different status. At this point, I'm mostly just resigned that I'll have to make up for my mistake the hard way (by manually entering a number for each item, one-by-one), but I just wanted to check in here and make sure there's not some easier way to do it before I put all that time in.
