Hi Josha,
Thanks for your patience and help. I do not have access to a server and the
application that is serving the old url's.
I think it is a syntax issue, one old URL routed to one new URL.
Old url
http://www.sitename.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=AWLAS&Category_Code=Abc+Xyz
New URL
http://www.sitename.com/index.php?action=view_user&user=2
#Begin htaccess content
# htaccess is located is subfolder name Merchant2
# merchant.mv is located is subfolder name Merchant2
<IfModule mod_php4.c>
php_value session.use_trans_sid 0
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING}
^Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=AWLAS&Category_Code=Abc+Xyz$
RewriteRule merchant.mv
http://www.sitename.com/index.php?action=view_user&user=2 [R=301,L]
#End htaccess content

Then install apache on your local server with as similar a config as
possible, test and debug it there using the RewriteLog, then upload
it.
Sorry, but debugging mod_rewrite without the RewriteLog is like
driving blindfolded.
