There is indeed an upgrade to TC++W.  I ordered my copy two weeks ago and
received it by FedEx two days later.  (Sorry I can't tell you the order
phone#.)  The upgrade consists of five diskettes, no documentation.  It
costs about $20 plus $10 shipping & handling (a bit much for just five
diskettes, if you ask me).

The upgrade features (quoting from the README file):

--"Color syntax highlighting: The IDE now highlights your source
  according to syntax."

--"Windows 3.1 support: All executables and DLLs  have been
  modified appropriately for compatibility with Version 3.1 of
  Windows. The ObjectWindows Library header files have been
  modified for compatibility with the new Windows header files
  as well."

--"WinSpector, a postmortem Windows debugging tool that traps
  general protection faults and provides information on where
  the fault occurred and the state of the machine at the time."

--"In addition, many problems users have reported have been
  corrected in this release."

I haven't had much time to play with it yet.  I will add that new demo
programs are included and the total package takes up about 4 MB more disk
space than the 3.0 version--i.e., about 26 MB total.
