Please copy and paste full text of the error message here.

What is the classpath set to when you compile the program?
It must point to the folder containing the package folder.

i am using netbeans so it shows error at the time of writing the code........
the error is
cannot find symbol
symbol Method AddTab(java.lang.String,ssca.home2)
location class javax.swing.JTabbedPane

and the other class is in same package

Sorry, I'm not familiar with the IDE's output.
Can you use the javac command to compile the program?
Here is a sample of its output:

TestSorts.java:138: cannot find symbol
symbol  : variable var
location: class TestSorts
         var = 2;
         ^

What will make it easier for us to diagnose is sending us the package that is giving you trouble. Just Zip the whole netbeans project and upload it so we can take a better look at it and see where you went wrong.
