I got it:
First find D=distance between A and B
D=sqrt((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2+(z2-z1)^2)
then
x3=x1+d/D(x2-x1)
y3=y1+d/D(y2-y1)
z3=z1+d/D(z2-z1)

but now i have another question, if I have a vector named my_vector
# declare my_vector=<1,2,3>;

how do i find individual values of x,y and z
so that i could find
#declare my_vector_X=.....; (shoud be 1)
#declare my_vector_Y=.....; (shoud be 2)
#declare my_vector_Z=.....; (shoud be 3)
