Before running the application, open the Web.config file in the ProductApp.Web project and then change the database file location for the connection string to your owns.

You can use the absolute path, such as:

<connectionStrings> 
    <add name="ProductDbContext" connectionString="Data Source=D:\Silverlight\ProductApp\ProductRiaLib.Web\App_Data\ProductData.sdf" providerName="System.Data.SqlServerCe.4.0" />
</connectionStrings>
