IDEAScript Questions

Joining Tables when key is between two values (upper and lower)

Hello, this is my first post on this forum as I am a recent IDEA user.
This question has been crackling my brain recently without any success.
I am trying to calculate the tax retention of multiple employees.
Tax Retention tables have an upper and a lower limit, and 2 features. For the two features I can simply do a join matches only but is there any way to do a key join between a range?
Tax retention table example on the right side.Employee Info on the left.
I want to extract the tax% value for each employee based on the features and its value.

Customize Ribbon with Script

Hello, 
I've been looking into this and haven't found out one way or another, but is there a way to use a script to customize the ribbon? I'm looking to install a series of IDEA scripts on multiple user computers and it would be great if I can just have them run a script that does all the customizations of their ribbon so they can use all of the other scripts quickly. 
Any help that can be provided on this would be appreciated. 
 
Thanks, 
Chris
