Toad for Oracle 9.0.1 does not reconnect to the database automatically after a time out, lost, or dropped connection. In older versions of Toad, a user would get a message saying that the connection was lost or communication was severed, but clicking on another database object, Toad would automatically reconnect.
This is by design. You can reconnect by going to the Session menu, then selecting Test Connections. This will reconnect you to the database. This method is preferred because of potential security risks of being automatically reconnected even though it is less convenient.
