arrayByMovingItemAt:toIndex:inArray:error:
Does what it says. Indexes are zero-based.
+ (NSArray *)arrayByMovingItemAt:(NSInteger)fromIndex toIndex:(NSInteger)toIndex inArray:(NSArray *)listOrArray error:(NSError *__autoreleasing *)outError
fromIndex = zero-based index of item to move
toIndex = proposed new zero-based index
listOrArray = the list or array
outError = missing value or reference
An array
Version 1.0.0
If you set outError to reference, the result will be a list of two items. If there is no error, the first item will be the result of the method and the second will be missing value. If there is an error, the first item will be missing value and the second item with be an NSError.

set theResult to current application's SMSForder's arrayByMovingItemAt:5 toIndex:0 inArray:listOrArray |error|:(missing value)
ASify from theResult

set {theResult, theError} to current application's SMSForder's arrayByMovingItemAt:3 toIndex:7 inArray:listOrArray |error|:(reference)
if theResult = missing value then error (theError's localizedDescription() as text)
--> error number -2700 Index is out of range.
