I have tried your code, both using and it works fine.
Can you please give the details how you ran the program maybe i can be able to see where you went wrong.

create a folder named packing1 and put Hi.java inside this folder, then outside the folder packing1 put Hello.java, compile Hi.java first and then compile Hello.java

It should work.

Good Luck.

You need to tell us more than "sometimes it doesn't work". There are lots of possible reasons for that, a minor spelling error being one of the commonest. Please give us the details so we can get this sorted out properly.
