Howdy,

I assume you're running pdflatex. Pdftex won't accept .eps directly.  
you should add the package

\usepackage{epstopdf}

and it should work (assuming you have the default --shell-escape  
option in the default pdflatex program set). You can also just drop  
the .eps file onto TeXShop and it will get converted to .pdf; the  
include the graphic using \includegraphic{expt2} without the .pdf  
extension and that should work also.

Hope this helps.

Good Luck,

Herb Schulz
