Get your Vista updated. Should help, Vista has a small problem it don't like files with over 5,000 items in it quits reading and or searching. The new patches is supposed to address this. One other question why merge? I am going to figure you have one database on the pc and another on an outboard hard drive? If so put them all on the outboard and rebuild, if you are going to use it anyway.
