Default Sorting regardless of whether a value is positive or negative

In column P of my spreadsheet I have a series of values
which I would like to sort in descending order regardless
of whether or not the number is a positive or a negative
number. The sort must display the nubers as they
originally appeared (i.e.with the negative attached if it
is a negative number) so the following list of numbers:

2346.70
-8246.06
360.00
-100.00
-6140.00

would appear as follows:
-8246.06
-6140.00
2346.70
360.00
-100

Is this possible ?

The only other thing to mention is that Row A of my
spreadsheet is populated with column headings.

Thanks in advance.

Steve
