Filtering a related list

I have created a Visualforce Page to mimic a related list for a custom object (Properties). The purpose is to add a filter to filter out properties with a status (Status__c) = "Active". To this point, I have been able to mimic the related list section of the Account object using this code:
<apex:page sidebar="false" showHeader="true" StandardController="Account">
   <apex:relatedList list="Properties_Operated__r">
   </apex:relatedList>
</apex:page>
I have been able to add the Visualforce page as a section of the page layout; it looks good and functions perfectly. I am now trying to add the code to filter by Status__c = "Active". So far, my attempts have been unsuccessful. Could someone advise as to the proper coding to use? Thank you.

I saw this very same post by Doug; it was in the consideration of this approach that I took the Visualforce option. My code is very close; I just need to figure out how to build in the filter of Inactive users in VF code. Thanks.
