Write each record into the file. Don't care about any pointers in your record.
They become invalid once you have deleted your list from memory.

When reading the file read each record and add it to a fresh, empty list. At
this point you have to update your pointers (next, previous) in your records !

Ever considered using objects (like TCollection and TStream) for this job ?
