Exclude columns from compare but display data

• 
  Sorry, I don't think this is possible. If columns are excluded, they are excluded from both the comparison row-matching process, the comparison results and also aren't considered for synchronization.
  
  However, we will consider this as a feature request. Can I ask why you need to sort by timestamp? Also, are you just looking to compare, or would you want to synchronize some rows as well?

  We are propagating 2 different databases with 2 different products. They each write to their respective databases, but one might be a little slower than the other. So the timestamp column is always an explainable difference. It does help to have the column in the results for troubleshooting when each was last updated when we do find a legitimate difference. Hope this makes sense.
  
  We are not really using the product to syncronize data after the compare, we are only using it for validation.
