Ok, I think I was looking in the wrong section on 123-reg.
My new server is saying..
To point the DNS-A records of your domain to the (said IP address) and to leave your Nameserver as the default....So....
At 123-reg? I keep the Nameserver default as it already has been inserted....then click on 'Change Nameserver' button? and then add the above IP address??
Is that right?
Hope it makes sense.

If you want to 'point it' as you say, then just change the nameservers as above.
If you want to move it completely away from 123 then you need to change the IPS Tag to your new providers details.

Tread careful young fella.
You need to be able to back up your credentials if challenged and you are using a registered trademark/trading name above and if you do not have explicit permission to use the name, you are at risk of big trouble dude...

Well, I did what Cornish Host said, which is below and now I'm hoping i did right and not messed anything up because when I type in the domain name in the address bar, I get the 'Page Cannot Be Found'.
Have I done right??? :|
Click Modify Domian
Click Manage DNS
Change the "www" A record to your IP address
Add any aliases (CNAME's) you want
Click "Update DNS"
Wait DNS to propagate
