Hi Cathy,
Yes maybe I do need to learn more about DNA and DNA tests but when they do not send you any results of the test it is very hard to document the results. They only let you know possible matches that you may be related to. That is what I was disappointed about. I took an Ancestry's Advanced Paternal Lineage Test (Y-Chromoson 46) a few years ago and got the results from them which I entered into my Legacy program, I had expected to get a more advanced DNA test from MyHeritage, but I didn't get anything other than I may be related to several second or third cousins several times removed. Just not what I had expected.

Here's why you can't just enter your DNA results for an autosomal test into Legacy - it's several MB even when zipped. You can enter an Event to track who has taken a DNA test. You can also use Events, Tags and Hashtags to track the research you do on your DNA matches. There are numerous webinars on DNA. Here is the link to an article Michele Simmons Lewis wrote on using Legacy to track your DNA match research. < http://news.legacyfamilytree.com/legacy_news/2017/08/how-i-use-hashtags-to-track-my-dna-matches.html> DNA research is complicated. Autosomal tests are proving very useful. Cathy
