I don't have a problem with duplicate songs in Hoster because i can weed them out after I create a song book then remove what I want from the song book and hoster.

To back up a bit, you stated that you converted part of your files with Songverter from Zip to KMA and I suspect this may be what is causing your problem. When you convert to KMA in Songverter it does not add a bookid so they are not Hoster ready. When you Rebuild the database these all show up as having a duplicate BookID (all 0s).
When you try to Merge the database, it sounds like it doesn't know what to do with those invalid BookIDs. Normally, you use the Merge command when you have imported files on two computers and assigned the same BookID to two different CD disks.
My suggestion is to try this to see if that is the problem. If your Sonverter processed files are in a separated folder remove that folder from the database list and rebuild the database. Then run your Merge Database and see if it will run. If it will then that is your problem. At that point go back to those zip files and import them into Hoster the same way you did the others.

One more thing..It's not only me I tried this on another laptop using a different processor and hd and still the merge shuts down hoster 3.319.

I believe this has been worked on in version 4.00, but if not I am sure they will. The problem here is actually not that the Merge isn't working, but that it is stopping after an error, when it should log the error files and go on to finish. Rebuild used to do the same thing, but now just logs the duplicates (which you could check to find out what files are causing the problem) and goes on to finish.
