There's a tool that I used alot and I tink it would work in your case it's called: Cookie cutter
You cand just select what you want either by selecting from another layer (like a city limit, boundry etc..) or just by making a polygon on a another layer.
it's will cut your map just la a real cookie cutter would do and it preserves everything.
As for you map merging I would try multipend (it's a multi append tool in you tool folder) you could merges maps in to 1 big map or table.
Hope this helps, let me know if you don't have the cookie cutter tool, I thinks it's calle cookie98.

Hi All,
Does anyone know of a tool that would allow one to "extract" a defined area from a "larger" Map Database (i.e., Elevation, Clutter
and Tiger Vectors) and create a smaller one (retaining the Map Projection, etc.)? I was also hoping that someone might be able
to recommend a tool that might be able to merge map databases for neighboring UTM Zones into a single database (preserving
their unique map projections). TIA,
