Hi,

I think you misplaced the quotes. From ?source:

file: a connection or a character string giving the pathname of the
          file or URL to read from.  ‘""’ indicates the connection
          ‘stdin()’.


Try instead (untested):

source("C:/Program Files (x86)/Eclipse/eclipse/ProjectName/SourceFile.R")

HTH,
Jorge
