This is my first attempt at using Exchange. I downloaded and unzipped the Lookup Table Dynamic Dropped for Vision. When I right click Templates in the designer then import. I select the .proj file and I get this error message `Can not import a project from a newer version of Ignition` Exchange version is 7.9.12, my version is also 7.9.12?

Use a text editor to look inside the beginning of the project file–there’s a header with version details.

Nice tip. Turns out it is labeld as 7.9.12 on the website but the file shows 7.9.13

```auto
<version>
  <major>7</major>
  <minor>9</minor>
  <rev>13</rev>
  <build>2019121008</build>

```

Can I change these lines and make it work?

Only if the file contains no feature/function modified between 7.9.12 and 7.9.13. Make a gateway backup for rescue purposes, because a broken project can produce weird and catastrophic side-effects. (Don’t do it on a production server.)
