Here is the code:
doc -ef W {
 doc -e LW {
 if(%H == "wks1" || %H == "wks2" || %H == "wks3")

{ 
colmove rng:=col(3):col(4) operation:=first;
}
}};


But I get an error: 
Command Error!
. What's the problem?

%H contains the window name, not the worksheet name. You can use the page.active value instead.

Sorry, I wanted to say that I use windows name.
doc -ef W {
 doc -e LW {
 if(%H == "window1" || %H == "window2")

 {
       
	colmove rng:=col(3):col(4) operation:=first;
	  

   }
}};

But even when I change the code like you said, I get the same error.
doc -ef W {
 doc -e LW {
 if(%page.active == "wks1" || %page.active == "wks2")

 {
       
	colmove rng:=col(3):col(4) operation:=first;
	  

   }
}};

I tried to remove % from the code, but I still get the error.

page.active is an integer value:
if (page.active == 1 || ...) {...}


Use page.active$ if you need to compare strings:
if (CompareNoCase(page.active$,"Sheet1") == 0 || ...) {...}


PS. If you need to run the script only for selected workbooks ("windows") it may be reasonable to check the condition within the corresponding loop to avoid unnecessary checks and to improve the readability of your code:
doc -ef W {
  if ("%H"=="Book1" || ...) {
    doc -e LW {...}
  }
}
