Hi Karen,

Yes, I thought about it overnight and came to the same conclusion, that I would have to manually put the times in those fields myself.  The manual just says check Auto and click the arrow under the check box.  I was going to try manually inputting the times this morning.  I found a converter between UT and BJD_TDB on Exofast last night and was going to use that.  Thank you for references to other converters as well.  

Actually, I did read Dennis's guide and I attended his extremely helpful course in Tucson a few months ago, but I do not recall a discussion of converting time and manually inputting the numbers into the Multi-Plot main screen (perhaps I just missed it).  Thinking about it, the solution makes perfect sense of course, but at this time, using the software for the first time, I just blindly followed the instructions in the maual.

I was not aware that AstroImageJ would automatically populate those fields with the numbers from the last use of it.  Thanks for explaining that!
