I'm merging two lists of schools. The matches are not exact. For example, in one dataset a school may have 302 students who are 67 percent white, and the other dataset the school may have 306 students who are 66 percent white. Is there a way I can find and score candidate matches? I've found two user written commands for this, but -nrmatch- can only match on one numeric variable, and -psmatch- can only match on strings. I'd like to match on several numeric variables and maybe one string as well.
Thanks!
