Unfortunately, this does not really solve the problem.

The files are named [code].[date].tent.pdf . So, in this solution, I 
should give a \DeclareGraphicsRule-command for each instance of [date]
(just to be sure about this, I tested with the given line of code, but 
it did not work). For WISB101.2004-11-11.tent.pdf:
\DeclareGraphicsRule{2004-11-11.tent.pdf}{pdf}{*}{}
for WISB101.2005-02-03.tent.pdf:
\DeclareGraphicsRule{2005-02-03.tent.pdf}{pdf}{*}{}
etcetera.

There are about forty of these dates, so applying this solution would 
be just as cumbersome as renaming the files.

Does anyone have other ideas how to solve the problem?

Regards,
Wouter
