Check two things.
1. Did you compile Text1 first? You must.
2. Make sure your classpath is set to include the location of your class files.

Try changing the first line of your code by eliminating the class modifier: coderanch. It should then read...
class Text1 {
Someone else will have to explain the rationale.

From java.sun.com/docs/codeconv/html/CodeConventions.doc2.html
Each Java source file contains a single public class or interface.
