Trying to access methods from a .class file by creating instance of class

Question

Hey all,
I'm hoping you can help. I've been given a file "Input.class" with methods such as readInt(), readString(), etc. I have tried creating instances of this class to make use of it, but I receive the error "cannot find symbol : class Input".
If you could help at all, I would greatly appreciate it.
Here's my code. The first is the base program, the second is the driver.
import java.util.*;
public class CarObject
     private String makeType = "";
     private String modelType = "";
     private int yearOfRelease = 0;
     private double numOfMiles = 0.0;
     public void setFilmTitle(String make)
          makeType = make;
     public void setMediaType(String model)
          modelType = model;
     public void setYearOfRelease(int year)
          yearOfRelease = year;
     public void setNumOfMiles(double miles)
          numOfMiles = miles;
     public String getMakeType()
          return makeType;
     public String getModelType()
          return modelType;
     public int getYearOfRelease()
          return yearOfRelease;
     public double getNumOfMiles()
          return numOfMiles;
The program is used by a rental car company and the object takes on desired attributes.
import java.util.*;
public class TestCarObject
     static Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
     public static void main(String[] args)
          System.out.println("Please answer the following questions regarding your rental car order.");
          Input carinput = new Input();
          String makeType = carinput.readString("Enter your desired make of car: ");          
          String modelType = carinput.readString("Enter your desired model of car: ");
          int yearOfRelease = carinput.readInt("Enter the oldest acceptable year of release to rent: ");
          double numOfMiles = carinput.readDouble("Enter the highest acceptable number of miles: ");
          System.out.println("Make: " + makeType);
          System.out.println("Model: " + makeType);
          System.out.println("Year: " + makeType);
          System.out.println("Mileage: " + makeType);
}

No, I don't know the package name....Is there a way
to import the Input.class by itself without importing
the entire packge?
I tried extending the driver program too...It didn't
work either...

BoxMan56How do you know you have a class called Input.class ?
You got a jar file which contains it ? or just a simple .class file ?
You have to set the classpath in either case.
But for the former, you should also need to explicitly telling which package containing the class file you looking for (i.e. Input.class)
e.g. java.util.Vector which is a class called Vector inside java.util package.
You don't have to import the whole package, but you should tell which package this class belongs to.
