    Comparisons with backup files don't support custom comparison keys. You can use any index on the table as a comparison key, but you can't use columns or combinations of columns which aren't the column list of an index. If you want to use your guid column as a comparison key, you will have to create an index on the column before doing the backup.

    Differential backup files should work fine as long as the corresponding full backup file is also included in the backup file list.
