Limiting WCF Data Members in Linq to SQL's DBML Serialization?

I understand that you can set the Serialization Mode = Unidirectional to allow data contracts to your dbml auto-generated entities. However, is there a way to only expose certain entities and ALSO limit the entities exposed to only expose certain properties of that entity as well?

I Googled and found it so I'm posting here for prosperity's sake:

Basically you just set the DBML's Serializable Mode = Unidirectional and then you set the "Access" for each entity you don't want exposed to the Service equal to Friend instead of Public. Access = Friend
