In your .htaccess file:

redirect 301 /oldlocation/oldpage.html http://www.yourdomain.com/newpage.html

In the old information you don't want to use a full URL, so don't include the http://www part of the address. Just use the path from the top level of your site. But do use the full URL in the new information. And make sure to leave one single space between each of the items of information on the line in your htaccess file.

This will send a http header message that you've permanently moved that page to the new address and tell the SEs to index just the new URL. It should keep the SE ranking and position and pass them to the new page.
