 Thanks, the help file cleared up the rest.

 In my case the table tt wasn't a merge table, it was just a table I
 created normally.  Even so the alter table line didn't create an error.

If the table type other than MERGE, UNION part of the ALTER TABLE statement is ignored.
So, your ALTER TABLE statement will recreate table tt and copy data.

  With this statement you specify that MERGE table tt will union tables t1,
  t2, t3 and they will used as one: http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/MERGE.html
 
 The four tables are all the same and all contain data.  I posted the
