I initially uploaded a 23andMe file showing 174 matches. Several days later I uploaded a FamilyTreeDNA file and received an email that I now have 274 matches. I can only locate the initial list with 174 matches. Suggestions for accessing the 2nd file, or a combined file, would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Ralph

When multiple DNA files are linked to the same person in the family tree, the DNA matches are merged.

You would get the highest quality matches by merging your raw DNA files before uploading.
"adding more SNPs to your raw data and getting more overlap will tend to disprove matches that might otherwise have been thought to be valid...Combining raw data from different companies does seem to provide some degree of increased accuracy in your match information and eliminates a few incorrect segments. Using it will drop off some of your more distant matches from your match list and replace them with others."
