I see, your problem is the deployment step (putting the files back out to 
the web server).
I do not think subversion has any tool for that. Typically that is done 
with other scripting tools
like PERL or PowerShell. It should not be hard to write a script to deploy 
the files.
You really don't want to merge on the server. You replace.

Essentially that is really out of the scope for subversion. Try a script 
or, if changes are
infrequent, just keep doing it manually.

Thanks for the quick response. Ok but not sure that solves my problem.  The 
situation is this.  The original files are on a remote web server and these 
files can't be erased, and the only privilege I have are to copy paste and 
delete files.  I can't create any directories or a repository on the 
server.  I have to create the repository on my local computer and then 
import the files to my computer.  I then check out the files to a dir on my 
computer to work on them and commit back to the repository. So my problem 
once the testing is done is there anyway for TortoiseSVN to merge the 
completed files back to the server. Hope this makes my question a little 
clearer

the example means to show that there is no connection to the original file. 
What happens on you local
file system is independent of the archive. You can at this point, if you 
want, delete the original file and
folder. A copy will still exist in that folder on the trunk in the archive.

The checked out folder is now your work area/sandbox. After making any 
changes you check them back in.
