Hi Ralph

This file below OK for me using TeX+Ghostcript and I just updated everything
yesterday.

----------------
\documentclass[11pt]{article}

\usepackage{graphicx}


\begin{document}


\includegraphics{fred.Sketch.eps}


  \end{document}

--------------------


You could try putting in

\DeclareGraphicsExtensions{.eps, .jpg, Sketch.ps}

I have no idea if it will help :-)
