Rick, I think Godfrey may well be on to the problem. The card contacts 
in the camera may be a bit grimy. Plastering an SS card with one of 
those electronic cleaning agents (Like Spanjaard LektroKleen) & putting 
it in and out a few times may help. I have solved USB contact problems 
like that.

The most obvious reason for a perfectly readable card to contain only JPGs, no 
DNGs, is that the camera has somehow got set to only write JPGs.  I assume you 
checked that, but ...
(Or, depending on which camera body you have, to write JPGs to one card, and 
DNGs to a different card)

Doublecheck camera settings to make sure nothing was inadvertently changed?

Mike,

Three of my four cards were indistinguishable, until I numbered them yesterday.

Methinks I will waste some electrons today shooting on each of the cards to see 
if one is faulty.
