Hi,

 Is there a way I can change the field that links to a particular record? for instance in accounts,

when you look at the list and click on Account Name you will be directed to the record of that account. Can I make it like instead of the account name , I'll use the email field as link to that account record?

    Unfortunately there is no way of doing this. It is always going to be the primary field of any entity.

    it is a primary field . you can not change primary field. only option is to delete entity and recreate it with different primary field.
