	There is a section of the THINK Pascal 3.0 user's manual. Verbatim,
it is as follows (page 15-16, for those of you who want to read along):

REMOVING YOUR OLD VERSION OF THINK Pascal

	If you're upgrading from an old version of THINK Pascal, you need
to remove it before installing THINK Pascal 3.0. 

	REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS

	Make sure you have a backup copy of your previous version of THINK
Pascal. You may need it if you have any trouble with THINK Pascal 3.0. Then
remove your old THINK Pascal Folder from your hard disk. You should delete
at least these files:

	- THINK Pascal (the application)
	- Interface.Lib
	- Runtime.Lib
	- Interfaces folder
	- Libraries folder

	NOTE: don't delete any projects or libraries that you created or
modified.

R.
