VB Express 2008 Publish Application Install Folder

I am trying to use VB's Publish feature to make the application install via a exe file .
I have a database mdf file in my project on my local drive but when it installs from the exe is does not install to the local drive so it cant find the mdf files and just shows errors.

How can i get it to install all the files to the same folder as it is on my drive - tried changing the installation folder on publish but it will not acept a path like c:\folder .
