Hi Tony,

sorry, no way to have an ImageID for the Analyze>Set Measurements  
redirect target in a macro.
In the inner works of ImageJ, it is an ImageID, but you cannot access  
it from a macro. You can only find out whether you have one, by using  
call("ij.plugin.filter.Analyzer.isRedirectImage"):
   http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/source/ij/plugin/filter/Analyzer.java

You have to use
   sourceTitle = getTitle();
on the input image and set the measurement options, e.g.
   run("Set Measurements...", "area mean min redirect=["+ sourceTitle  
+"] decimal=4");

This will fail if you have two open images with the same name.

Michael
