You could schedule a SAS program that checks a list of names and birthdays and sends them an email if the current date matches the birthday if that is what you mean. A SAS program still has to run but it can happen automatically, rather than you running it manually. Is that what you want?

See the article: How to send email using SAS, which contains several examples including one for targeted emails. @SASKiwi is correct that the program needs to run on a regular cadence in order to send the email to the intended recipients on the correct date.
