I am going to use this page to hold notes about redirecting pointers. I want to be able to programatically change all pointers in all records that point to a given record, to point to a different pointer.

This is done in Fileman when a record is deleted and there are pointers to that record. The user is given the option to delete all pointers, or to redirect them to another record.
