I ran this little snippet of code that you provided, and it worked
exactly as expected. I'm running IDL v4.0.1 on SunOS 4.1.3. You did not
mention your OS or IDL version... perhaps that has something to do with it.

I got the following result, as expected:

idl>.run ~/idl/get_data
idl>print,get_data( 1 )
test structures
idl>

I'm not sure this is much help to you, but there you have it.
