Sqlplus / Batch file Question - Windows platform 1

[Analyst2004]

I am running a Batch file (.bat) from Windows 2000. This Batch file invokes sqlplus and calls a sql script.Once the script is executed, I get a dmp file in the specific location in C Drive as coded.
However, when I execute the batch file which invokes a sqlplus -s session, I get two windows
1. c:\WINNT\System32\cmd.exe
2. c:\orant\bin\PLUS80.exe

I have to explicitly MINIMIZE both these windows. Is there a command which I can use to MINIMIZE cmd-window ?
Is there any command that I can use to MINIMIZE the sqlplus window automatically ??

Also - Is there any way to have batch file or sqlplus run in the background ?? (NOTE: I do not have access to AT(Windows command) ).

Have you tried to call plus80 -s?

Ya, plus80 -s works... I am not getting the sqlplus window now.
