Move Selected Columns syntax error in JMP17

Dear community, maybe someone can help me out.

 

I have created an add-in in JMP16 in which part of the add-in is to move ~60 columns in the order I want.

For this, I use the 

Move Selected Columns

syntax.

 

However, since I've installed JMP17, this syntax doesn't seem to work anymore. The columns now seem to be placed in a random order and not in the order I scripted.

 

The scripts looks like this (column names and amount of columns are simplified for this example):

dt << Move Selected Columns({ :"Column 1"n, :"Column 2"n, :"Column 3"n, :"Column 4"n, :"Column 5"n, :"Column 6"n });

However, the order I end up with may look like this: Column 2, Column 3, Column 6, Column 1, Column 5, Column 4

 

When looking at the Scripting index in JMP17, <Move Selected Columns> still seems to be the correct syntax. Has anyone else encountered this problem and maybe found a solution?

Maybe I should add: Columns I try to order are a mix of Continuous data columns, Nominal data columns and columns with formulas.

(Although JMP16 didn't seem to mind this).
