Hello, Say that I have a dataset1 with ID and variable 1, like this: ID Var1 A 5.1 B 6.1 C 7.1 D 8.1 F 9.1 G 10.1 I also have dataset2, which is a reference table like this: Var2 Var3 5 20 6 30 7 40 8 50 9 60 How do I obtain a dataset that has ID, Var1, and Var3 such that Var3 corresponds to Var1's closest match in Var2 of the reference table. The resulting dataset would look like this: ID Var1 Var3 A 5.1 20 B 6.1 30 C 7.1 40 D 8.1 50 F 9.1 60 G 10.1 60 I came across the following article but I'm not sure how it can be adapted to my problem: http://www.lexjansen.com/pharmasug/2003/CodersCorner/cc001.pdf Thank you.
