st: how can I merge two data sets over a range of values

Hi, I want to merge two data sets. The merge variable is the stock
price. However I would like to merge over a range of prices. For
example if the price is 20 in dataset1, I would like that to merge
with any price in the range of 19.5 to 20.5 in dataset2. Currently
my data sets each contain only a single stock price series (and other
variables).
Any ideas?
Thanks
Richard
