It's the name of the DLL that contains the text of your messages. I 
generally embed them within my executable, giving (this is for a 
service, and there's a lot of unrelated stuff in here):

<Component Id="ServerComponent" Guid='$(var.ServerCGUID)'>
    <File Id='TSRVEXE' Name='$(var.ServiceName).exe' DiskId='1'
        Source="!(wix.CONFIG)\$(var.ServiceName)\$(var.ServiceName).exe"
        KeyPath='yes'
    />
    <util:EventSource Name='$(var.ServiceDisplayName)' Log='Application'
        EventMessageFile='[#TSRVEXE]'
        SupportsErrors='yes'
        SupportsWarnings='yes'
        SupportsInformationals='yes'
        />

(etc...)
