I don't quite understand what you're trying to do. Can you please rephrase your question?

I know in Illustrator you can merge paths, is there something similar in the paths tool of Photoshop? I don't have it open right now or I'd check :)

I don't think there's a way, other than manually making the shape on a top layer. Photoshop just isn't meant for working with vectors.

Illustrator is Adobes Vector program, In PhotoShop CS2 I belive that you can merge smart objects(PS version of vectors).
