Default How to Re-direct to a Different Web Server

Hi there,
I have a existing Apache web server for my company www.company.com with the
IP of 100.100.100.100.
Now, I am planning to move it from an ISP to another, so it's IP address has
to be changed, and it would be 200.200.200.200.
To zero the downtime, I'd like to set up a new server at the new ISP with
the new IP, and keep the old server at the current ISP for a while and
forward its access to http://200.200.200.200.
The question is how to set up the forwarding/redirection on the current
Apache, and it won't change the address in the browser's address field?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Ross
