SQLDataCompare - EXCLUDE Column In XML File

So in my last episode, I was setting up a DATACOMPARISON using an XML file.
Table 1 is to be compared to Table 2. Table 1 has jobs run against it which delete data from the table. The comparison of table 1 to table 2 is to only allow rows to be added or modified, NOT deleted.
All is going well until I setup up MERGE replication from Table 2 to go out to separate servers in other countries.
Now when I compare Table 1 to Table 2, I get "Updating columns with the rowguidcol is not allowed"
I mistakenly thought SQLDataCompare ignored rowguid (bad info from a co-worker). Is it possible to EXCLUDE the rowguid setup by Microsoft SQL from my comparison?
