Is there a way to filter out profiles not flagged?

I don't think there is
But you can sort your profiles flagged first
Or you can set a tag for flagged profiles and then filter by tag

Thanks!   

I can't seem to sort my "flagged first" by collection number.
If I load a flag.lst it sorts by title (all flagged are first or top most). If I then sort by collection number it looses the flagged first order and goes back to the original state.

Looks like I have to fiddle with tags.

Not directly, but tags could help in this case.
Furthermore you can invert "Flags", which might come in handy if you want to assign a tag to those profiles that are not in your flag.lst

As for sorting: unfortunately profiler only has one configurable sort, the secondary is always the sort-title.

Some other suggestions:
(1) Use DB Query plugin to get exactly what you want. 
(2) Use a temporary custom collection and move the flagged profiles into it - do your thing, then move them back. 
(3) Do a backup of the flagged profiles and load them into a temporary database, do your thing, then load them back into the main database. 
(4) Backup the unwanted profiles, delete them, do your thing, then reload the deleted profiles. 
(5) Oh, almost forgot: if you are editing, then you could load flagged into BulkEdit, sort on whatever column you want and edit from there.
Thanks for your support.
