In other words, you used func RD instead of DN. Not to worry. It's
not gumming up anything. Func DN just happens to be better (best)
for this purpose.

Right.

Keep them; it'll save a step. Look, there's no mystery to this.
Let's walk through it.

Close all open files. CAll your U2 file. Issue SAB to
create a backup (just in case).

DeFine the entire portion of the file that consists of XyWWWeb v105
code -- in other words, our stuff, not yours (or new stuff that you
added manually since installing v105). Delete the DF block,
preferably with FUNC DN. Your stuff (if any) should still be there.
(If you delete any of your stuff by mistake, don't worry. You have
the backup, and you can fix it later.)

Leave the cursor where it is. MErge XYWWWEB.U2 v112 at the cursor
position. Don't SAve, LH or do anything else (except relax).

CAll XYWWWEB.USR. With XYWWWEB.USR in the current window, issue
UVR. This restores your User Variable data. (If UVR pauses
with a PRompt, hit any key to continue. Don't hit Escape in
response to any PRompt; let UVR run to completion.)

When UVR has finished, U2 will be the current window. Issue
LH to reLOAD U2, then ABort the file. You're done.
