Sounds possible.

If you want details, explain what you plan to do.

lib b and c.... I have to write a common program using macro ...than

Please be more specific. Describe your situation, and what you want to achieve from that.

So you need something like

%macro mymac(lib);
proc print data=&lib..ae;
run;
%mend;

%mymac(a)
%mymac(b)
%mymac(c)
