Get Edited Text Problem with 4D 2004
Apparently a change was made in version 2004 in when a field is "interpreted".
Prior to version 2004 when tabbing out of a field Get edited text would return the contents as entered regardless of the field type. The content of the field would be interpreted after the enabled form events were executed. For instance Get edited text called from a date field's object method would return "5/1" during the form event On Data Change. In 2004.x the field is interpreted before any code is run causing Get edited text to return "00/00/00" in the above instance.
Variables act as they did before.
Here are two databases in Mac format, one in 2004.x the other in 2003.x. The 2003 version works as expected. That is, Get edited text returns the actual entry in On Data Change.

If you're not having issues with this, I wouldn't bother to download these examples. They're not particularly interesting. Really and truely.
