Look at DIF() function.

If this is a check post your current code.

Since you have to look ahead and back, I'd use something like the following:

data have;
  informat date date9.;
  informat time time5.;
  input ID date time;
  format date date9.;
  format time time5.;
  cards;

;

data have;
  set have;
  dt=input(catx(':',put(date,date9.),put(time,time5.)),anydtdtm15.);
  format dt datetime21.;
run;

data want (keep=id date time);
  set have;
  by ID;
  set have ( firstobs = 2 keep = dt rename = (dt = Next_dt) )
      have (      obs = 1 drop = _all_                      );
  Prev_dt = ifn( first.ID, (.), lag(dt) );
  Next_dt = ifn(  last.ID, (.), Next_dt );
  if not missing(Next_dt) and (Next_dt-dt) lt 120 then output;
  else if not missing(Prev_dt) and (dt-Prev_dt) lt 120 then output;
run;
