Hide Field in List View but still sort based upon It that field?

Hi All,
i wrote a quick formula in order to sort a list view based upon multiple fields. It returns a number and works great but i'd prefer to not have it show within the list view itself as it is just a bunch of numbers. Is there anyway to hide this but still sort based upon this "sort field"? I've tried Hyperlinking but it needs a text field as an input and does not work sort wise if i wrap the Sort Field API in TEXT

for Example, HYPERLINK(TEXT(Sort__c,"")
- this would just hide the number sort field behind blank text but unfortunately it not longer works

My preference would be to just have the field be completely hidden but that doesnt seem possible

That is not possible without of the box or configuration ..  


You need to write the complete custom code to replace the tab and list views and sort based your formula at the code level
