This will add two projects in solution, "SampleBusinessApplication" and "SampleBusinessApplication.Web".  Now for example, you want to change the name of application which is displayed at top left corner of Silverlight business application, go to SampleBusinessApplication project and open ApplicationStrings.resx (from Assets\ Resources  folder) in resource designer. Modify  "ApplicationName" resource to "My Demo Application".
