Things may appear hung in Enterprise Manager because it sits waiting for a response from SQL Servers engine and depending on the action you do and the table structure and quantitiy of data, things can take some time...
I did exactly the operation you attempted a couple of years ago on a dev box, it took 20 minutes... I went to do it on live and about had palpatations when it didn't return for 12 hours...
