Jeff,

Include a few lines of the batch file to help figure out what the 
problem is.

I have a guess without seeing the batch file.  gdal_merge in FWtools is 
itself a batch file.  To return control to your original batch after 
calling another batch file you'll need to use "call".  e.g.

call gdal_merge ...

That could solve your problem.
