Steps:
1. Connected as schema ATCAPPS
2. In the Editor, type in an object that APPS has access to == TDA throws the error object not found
3. Tries APPS.objectname == TDA either hangs or throws the error object not found

Resolution
WORKAROUND:
In the Editor window, select from Schema drop down list and select the object owner which is APPLSYS in the example and then the describe finally comes back
STATUS:
Waiting for fix in a future release of Toad for Data Analysts. -
