1. Even if the reply explains it clearly, it doesn't mean the top post doesn't need to be modified, because your question is also valuable for others. 2. Your reply doesn't explain it clearly.

rasdial is a command provided by Windows XP/2003 (not sure if it exists in 2000, but it should be). It can be used to achieve dial-up internet access in command line mode (including ADSL virtual dial-up). Of course, by placing it in the startup group of XP, you can also achieve automatic dial-up when booting. Taking ADSL virtual dial-up as an example, let's explain the usage: Suppose the connection name of ADSL virtual dial-up is ADSL, and both the username and password are test. Then: rasdial adsl test test This command can directly connect for ADSL virtual dial-up. Create a batch file adsldial.cmd with the following content: @echo off
rasdial adsl test test
exit Then create a shortcut named autoadsldial for this batch file, modify the properties of the shortcut, set "Run style" to "Minimized", and then put this shortcut into the startup group of XP. Then when logging in at boot, this shortcut will run in window minimized mode, and you won't see the running window of this command on the desktop.

Suggest the poster to modify the title to: How to minimize the batch command window when running under XP?

After all, it's still using shortcuts, and this isn't something done by DOS.
----------------------------------------
Using start is okay, but you need two batch files because one has to call the other... It's not good either...
In a word, I'm confused

So can we go a bit further: instead of minimizing the window, run it in the background, not even visible on the taskbar? If it can automatically dial when booting and run automatically in the background, that would be great

Faint, XP/2003 can automatically connect virtual dial-up and such things originally. Is it necessary to make such a fuss?

There are several methods to achieve it:
1. Add the /min parameter, that is, write like this in cmd:
start /min xxx.exe
But the /wait and /min parameters in the start command cannot be used at the same time, otherwise the /min is invalid;

2. Implement it with a VBS script
The script is as follows:
DIM objShell
set objShell=wscript.createObject("wscript.shell")
iReturn=objShell.Run("cmd.exe /C c:\1.bat", 0, TRUE)

3. Implement it with a third-party program, such as using HIDECMD.EXE, CMDOW.EXE
