Filter post list with a custom field.

Ok folks, I’ll be simple to get a fast response =)

I have a custom field called “status”, how to make a query to only show posts with “status=1”?

I know that c2c_get_custom(‘custom_file_name’) return the value of the custom field, but I don’t know how to put that inside the query_posts like for example:

<?php query_posts(‘showposts=5’); ?>

EDIT:

I’m currently trying to do something like this:

while(have_posts()) {
the_post();
if (c2c_get_custom(‘status’) == “1”) {
// display post
}

But I was wondering if there is any other better way to do that.

EDIT: Please, some moderator change this topic to the right area, sorry for that. I guess its “plugins/hacks”.
